lyrics
Going door to door, selling outside your corner store
When it's Girl Scout Cookie time, girl scouts are never hard to find
Four bucks a box is such a deal, a sleeve of thin mints can make a meal
Samoas seem to be a fan favorite, taste so good you'll want to savor it
Dosidos, Thin Mints, Trefoils, Tagalongs
Buy a box of each, cuz you know you just can't go wrong
Dip 'em or dunk 'em or even freeze 'em
Doesn't matter to me as long as I eats 'em
Talking while eating them, really screws up my diction
I once stole a box of Girl Scout Cookies, but the judge overturned my conviction
Savannah Smile is a lemon flavored cookie
I hear it's a favorite of Chewbacca the wookie
Dosidos, Thin Mints, Trefoils, Tagalongs
Buy a box of each, cuz you know you just can't go wrong
Dip 'em or dunk 'em or even freeze 'em
Doesn't matter to me as long as I eats 'em
No trans fats and real peppermint
The cocoa they use is 100%
Gimme some of those caramel delites
And I'll end up in a diabetic coma tonight
Dosidos, Thin Mints, Trefoils, Tagalongs
Buy a box of each, cuz you know you just can't go wrong
Dip 'em or dunk 'em or even freeze 'em
Doesn't matter to me as long as I eats 'em
