I looked out my window late last night, I was staring at the moon
And suddenly I saw an amazing sight, A giant cookie filled with prune, I said,
Oh, My Gosh, It’s a Humantosh
Perfect food for a midnight nosh
Oh, My Gosh, It’s a Humantosh
Right outside my room
I put on my bathrobe and I went, and opened my front door.
But to my disappointment, the cookie was no more.
I went back to my room and scratched my head, and what do you think I see?
A giant cookie sitting on my bed, as big as you and me.
Oh, My Gosh, It’s a Humantosh
Perfect food for a midnight nosh
Oh, My Gosh, It’s a Humantosh
Big as you and me.
Well, all week long I’d be wishing for, a snack of that very ilk,
So I ran to the kitchen and began to pour, a great big glass of (milk)…. orange juice.
But when I got back to my room, much to my dismay
I heard a sound it went zoom, zoom, and the cookie flew away, I said…
Oh, My Gosh, It’s a Humantosh
Perfect food for a midnight nosh
Oh, My Gosh, It’s a Humantosh
And it flew away.
Now ever since then I wait and see, ‘til Purim comes around
I hope and hope that maybe, that cookie will be found
And every year I’m sure I see, out of the corner of my eye
A giant three-sided cookie… flying across the sky!
Oh, My Gosh, It’s a Humantosh
Perfect food for a midnight nosh
Oh, My Gosh, It’s a Humantosh
Flying across the sky!
