I Want Some Ice Cream | Arthur

S3E11b Arthur's Almost Live Not Real Music Festival

Dad: Arthur! D.W.! Dinner!

Arthur:
My dad's a chef
You think that's great?
Just try to guess
What's on your plate He mixes things
And then he bakes
Why can't he stick
To chocolate cakes?

I want some ice cream
Chocolate would be good
Ice cream that tastes...
Just like it should!

Not broccoli
Turkey or a lima bean
It's got to taste like ice cream!

Dad:
You have to try
My latest treat
A jellied fish
Inside a beet

(Arthur, D.W.: Yuck!)

Why should we eat
The same old meals?
Wait 'til you taste
My garlic eels
There are so many things to make
A custard soup, a liver cake
A curry pie, with prunes and squash
How 'bout Leftovers Goulash?
(Hey!)

D.W.:
Nothing brown
And nothing soupy
Nothing slippery
And nothing gloopy

Nothing mashed
And nothing steamed
And nothing runny with eyes or feet
That smells or wiggles when you touch it
or with crusts
and nothing creamed!

This smells like fish!
I can't stand fish!
I can't believe this cookie
Smells like fish!(Arthur: Ice cream!)
It tastes like fish! (Arthur: Ice cream!)
Like chocolate fish! (Arthur: Ice cream!)
Why would anybody eat a cookie fish?

Dad:
There are so many things to make
(D.W.: It tastes like fish! Arthur: I want some ice cream!)
A custard soup, a liver cake
(D.W.: I can't stand fish! Arthur: I want some ice cream!)
A curry pie, with prunes and squash
(D.W.: I can't believe this cookie smells! Arthur: Not broccoli, not turkey!)
How 'bout Leftovers Goulash?

(Arthur: It's got to taste like ice cream! Hey!)
(Arthur and D.W.: Hey!)

Dad:
Take a pot
And add a lot
Of codfish mash
And kidney hash!

Let's add some snails
And catfish tails,
Some brains and feet
Can't wait to eat!

A sloppy scoop
Of runny gloop
A squid on toast
A rhubarb roast

Some tofu stew
With extra goo
Leftover squash
It's called goulash!
(Hey!)

(Arthur and D.W.: We're not hungry anymore! Hey!)
