I don't want to have needs, I just want to be the one Em G Always saving the day, always getting things done D A With practiced hands, and the fire of the sun Em G For fuel, not this empty, empty battery D A It's hard to cut yourself slack, hard to have your own back Hard to take your own advice, hard to even be nice You know that you should be a superhero Isn't everyone a superhero but me? Maiden in distress never suited me best I want to be thick-skinned, not waiting on the wind For random news back of ability or lack I'm going to have today I don't want to depend on the kindness of friends I know that that's our lot in the only life we've got But if you've got a line on mail-order dignity Hey I'm listening I don't want to have needs, I just want to be the one Always saving the day, always getting things done With practiced hands, with the fire of the sun For fuel, not this empty, empty battery

Every creature that's born has just got to eat A And some like broccoli and some like meat D But the girl scouts cheer when they see him on the street A D Lord love him, he's a cookie-eatin' man A E A And hey-diddle-dee E At the patisserie E A-hi-diddle-die A He ain't lookin' for pie A Just a dozen chocolate chippers hot off the pan A D Lord love him he's a cookie-eatin' man A E A Measure the flour, set the oven's heat I hope you've got plenty of eggs to beat For his love of snacks it ain't petite Lord love him he's a cookie-eatin' man He's easy to please, just bake some treats Unless you're a diet he never will cheat Let him in to your heart and there'll be crumbs in your sheets Lord love him he's a cookie-eatin' man
