lyrics

The way she twirls her rosary around her thumb
The way she swirls the jolly rancher round her tongue
I saw her steal a jump rope
knot it up like a noose
string up her barbie doll
a baby devil on the loose

Sally Calicocookie, ca-calicocookie
Running down the halls with the scissors in her hands
Dodging all the nuns, cutting up the air
I knew right there and then I had to
find a way to be her man

"This Piece Be With You" scribbled underneath her skirt
she lifts it to the boys kneeling there in church
she spiked the holy water
with dad's Kentucky rye
flirting with the priests in the
confessional to get the wine

Sally Calicocookie, ca-calicocookie
Slinking down the stairs with her ciggies in her hand
Cursing at the principal and making heathen plans
I knew right there and then I had to
find a way to be her man

All those afternoons chasing you down the hall
I fantasized about pushing you against the wall
Our eyes would meet and our lips would touch
I should have known then that you were just way too much

Another parent's night at my daughter's school
She swears to me her English teacher's really cool
I sit and wait and wonder, what could she mean
then Sally enters singing "God Save The Queen"
The mother's mouths aghast
the father's drooling drawls
She keeps me after class
to pass her flask of fireball

Sally Calicocookie, ca-calicocookie
Preaching to the students 'bout the power people have
Dancing down the halls, a trail of children laugh
I knew right then and there I had to
find a way to be her man
