I love you Alice B. Toklas 
And so does Gertrude Stein 
I love you Alice B. Toklas 
I'm gonna change your name to mine 

Red velvet trees and lions, grinning lions, candy witches 
Eating lychee leaves, spinning rainbowing light 
Green wooly golden gardens, marvin gardens 
Coriander baby elephants singing silent night 

Sweet cinnamon and nutmeg, 
Che Guevara Teotihuacan aglow 
Clean cannabis sativa, sweet sativa 
Chocolate and mountain snow 

Waltz with the furry fishes, curry dishes, 
Silly tigers wearing butterflies flying further than far 
Kiss lime and lemon ladies, ice cream ladies 
Orphan Annie, Ernest Hemingway strumming Bonnie's guitar 

I love you Alice B. Toklas...
