Ghosts Cooking Hot Cakes
"Okusurina (medicine girls)" LYRICS
On long and sleepless nights,
I hear some sounds coming from the kitchen door
What if it’s a burglar, oh no!
I hold my blanket very tight
And quietly peak through the opening of the door
Yikes! Ghosts!
Dororon-Pa, Dororon-Pa
The kitchen is packed full of scary ghosts
If my mom sees, she will surely pass out
Ghosts are scary, makes me shiver and cry
Boyoyon-Pa, Boyoyon-Pa
What are these ghosts doing in middle of the night
I wanna know, wanna know more
I’ve come up with a very good plan
I too should become one of them ghosts!
Ghosts are breaking fresh eggs in a bowl
Ghost are pouring some flour too
Ghosts are measuring some milk in a cup
Ghosts are licking some sugar too
My job to do tonight, is mixing it good and right
With all the ingredients in a bowl mix it good, mix it good, mix it good
Dribble it into the frying pan
Bubble of cream start popping up all over
Flip it over with the twist of the wrist
Look at it, a brown colored hot cake done
All the ghosts take a deep long breath
The smell is so good it makes us drool
Come on everyone, let’s have a bite
Let’s eat the hot cake we made
Place a piece of butter on the top
Dribble some honey
Chocolate is a favorite too
And with vanilla ice cream it will be perfect!
(My tummy is so full.)
