The 7 ELEVEN COOKBOOK SONG

from GREAT BIG HOUSE by Rick Berlin w/ THE NICKEL & DIME BAND

/

about

Ricky McLean and Robby Manochio had a plan. Because they were regulars at the 7 Eleven late at night they figured if they wrote a cookbook using only 7 Eleven ingredients it would be a huge hit.

lyrics

THE & ELEVEN COOKBOOK SONG

it’s late
last call gone
it’s cold
and nothing’s open
i’m starving
my friend is cracking up
what t do
where t go

i see a light
and it’s bright
it could be heaven
tonight
at the 7 Eleven
it’s a cookbook
right?!

the stove
is hot
cheap weed
is all we got
smokin
on the roof
sucking hot dog
soup
and spam soufflée

i see a light
and it’s bright
it could be heaven
tonight
at the 7 Eleven
it’s a cookbook
right?!

the kid who takes yr money
you can’t find it
he throw you out
and the hip hop stoner
w the perfect sneakers
busts a smile
he bust a smile
the kid has clout
he got a gold tooth
right there up in front

i see a light
and it’s bright
it could be heaven
tonight
at the 7 Eleven
it’s a cookbook
right?!
