Spoon Girl

some people choose to eat their nuts in big old handfuls

some people nibble and nibble so they don't run out

some people only like peanuts, cashews, or almonds

but when you eat your nuts you use a spoon, no doubt

 

who knew a spoon could be used to munch on some nuts

we all thought it was weird when Mr. Pitt used a fork for his candy

who knows maybe your art form will catch on

and eating nuts with spoons will be dandy so dandy

 

I guess it makes sense when the nuts are honey roasted

All that stuff can get kind of messy

But even if their salted I don’t think its called for

To use a spoon for nuts is so unnecessary

 

Why don’t you put your hand in the bag

Or just dump them into your palm

Are you pretending its cereal

Or is it to work out for your arm

either way I’d like to know more about your weird way of getting

some nuts from the bag to your mouth is so breath taking

 

who knew a spoon could be used to munch on some nuts

we all thought it was weird when Mr. Pitt used a fork for his candy

who knows maybe your art form will catch on

and eating nuts with spoons will be dandy so dandy

 

When you share nuts do you make people use your spoon

or must they have their own at the ready

While on a plane I saw a woman eating nuts with a spoon and it inspired me to write this
