August 18, 2009 Mista Cookie Jar and the Chocolate Chips at Tuesday Night Cafe. Fun show! Everyone loved the kids. The gang was actually called Da Big Seeds that night but soon after we changed the name to the cuter and catchier Chocolate Chips. This gang includes Ava aka Ava Flava/Avaroni, Lucas aka Joey the Dogg, Miss Mikyla, and Venice Carly. They did a great job! The kind folks at TNC gave the kids each their own mic. Lucas was really cute with his arfs during Joey the Dogg. Ava nailed her raps and all her cues. Mikyla fashionably came in midset with a stunning entrance. They gave her a mic and she was good to go! Then the girls did some spontaneous synchronized dancing. All the while, Carly was doin her thang dancin lookin stylish and cool. We were all strangely amped and tired at once--the previous two nights we were making a video for Magic World at Carly's place til the wee hours of the morning. So we were exhausted but we had that Love Bubble synergy thang goin on. Farmer John aka Johneric gave us a warm and generous introduction. And the Tuesday Night folks always give out good vibes. ; ) We had my friend NIck J Palmer who is making a documentary about me came out to film it. Hopefully we'll get some of that footage for youtube soon. Big thanks to Alex (Nick's twin bro) for taking pictures! Here is a slide show of the night featuring the song, Circles, off the Love Bubble LP:

lyrics: joey the dogg
joey the dogg
joey is the name of my dog
a little puppy who can bark and talk
goes to my school
everyone thinks he's cool
cuz my puppy's got a really big heart
joey knows the answers in class
raises his paw cuz he got no hands
and u can bet he's the teachers pet
but its all good cuz he makes us laugh
his name is joey the dogg
and when i'm sad he lets me hold him tight
he's by my side when i sleep at night
when i get moody joey shakes his booty
just like that, he makes me feel alright
i feel alright
and if u ask him what his name is,
he'll say joey the dogg
my little puppy is the greatest
its joey....the most the beautiful dog
he's joey...a beautiful dog, a beautiful dog...
lemme tell ya bout j-j-joey
my dogs a baller not much taller than the ball
yall best listen, he's all about fetchin kisses
from shorties cuz that's my dogg
he crawls around this town
he gets down to that canine sound of:
"oooo oooo!!" his doggie style
j-j-joey that's my dogg
this playa play likes to play around
playa play all day he play me
playin like he play playstation, playa
that's my dogg
better than scoobie snoopy goofy pluto
any dog that u kno
little todo got nothin on j-joey jo joe
cuz that's my dogg
and if u ask him what his name is
he'll say joey the dogg
my little puppy is the greatest
he's joey, the most beautiful dog
he's joey! a beautiful dog
I'm in love with joey the dogg
i'm in love with joey the dogg
i'm in love with joey the dogg
his name is joey...joey the dogg
"joey, that's me...ruff ruff, arf!"
lyrics: circles
circles
(lyrics by mista cookie jar & matthue roth)
i can't wait to go outside today
i think the grass might run away
i hope that its gonna wait
i can't wait to go outside today
i double check the borders so
i know exactly where i should play
for six months when i was young
i didn't talk to anyone
instead i wrote in fingerpaint
and sang along to oldies radio
and then i'd love to jump around in circles
i can't wait to cruise out to the mall
in our wooden panel station wagon
8 track systems go!
i can't wait to listen to those songs
the beatles and the everly brothers
a sunny family sing along
and then we'll go outside tonight
pajamas after pillowfight
the ground makes our feet wet
but they let
us do it anyway
and then we'd love to jump around in circles
round and round we go!
jumpin round in circles
like a ninja turtle
funny like iCarly
cuter than a barbie
mommy makes a hot meal
lucas plays hot wheels
he's my bro on my squad
aka joey the dogg
but to keep it real, yall
elvis is my real dog
i'm a stay at home girl
we got us our own world
after dinner we play
with my buddy ceejay
as long as we behave
party in our pj's
and then we'll go outside tonight
pajamas after pillowfight
the ground makes our feet wet
but they let us do it anyway
and then we'd love to jump around in circles
round and round we go!
lyrics: magic world
(lyrics by Mista Cookie Jar & Peachy Keen)
everyday, when i wake
i get jazzed up,
its time to play.
open my eyes
n i see ur face.
aint no other better way
to start the day. hey!
wait one second fo we git get oughta bed
tell me bout tha little sugarplums
boucin bouncin ra ra round in yo head
now wus dat beeeeepin? oh sweet lord
nintendo ds in the mornin yall
lemme play that level...its eeasy
for my brotha and me luiiieeegi
no kid gone ever defeat me.
o man, no way. u just beat me.
hey!....big up to the kid
cuz everybody knows who tha real star is
straight from the bottom
bottum bottum of my heart,
i love you, love you, love you
more than words can say.
i wanna wanna wanna
give u all the stars
i wanna wanna
want the world for you to play
and when i see ya little little little smile
it fills my heart with sucha
sucha sucha feeling
enamored by the twinkle twinkle in ur eyes.
my spirit's lifted higher, high up to the ceiling.
what is this flowing thru the air?
i know its you who brings it near.
now listen closely you will hear.
some kinda magic's happenin here!
(Peachy Keen)
living in a magic world yall
never turning my imagination off
in my dreams i know u saw me
chillin in the coolest world of all (here we go)
sliding down that candy slide (mmmhmm)
going surfin on a chocolate tide
marshmellow bumber car for my ride
lollipop trees by my side (that's right)
take a ride on a faries wing (oh yeah)
listening to the witches sing (ugh huh)
checkin out all the leprechan bling
gonna turn that frog into a queen
gonna be his king when i wear his ring
doing that fairy tale thing (what!?)
so dreamy, completely
i'm just so princess peachy.
you kno i really wanna take u there
in a minute, we gotta billion days to spare
so let down ya hair
u don't gotta be a trillionaire
we got the whole wide world to share
now can i get "oh yeah"
we can run around and play all day
never gonna grow up no way
who got tha magic hocus pocus
so automatic? that's U!
its a magic world...!
lyrics: supertalents
children! ever stop and think why ur put up on this planet?
each baby in the world born with a gift of God's good magic
each got a puzzle piece in they life, you just got to got to grab it
practice till that gift of goodness comin auto-automatic,
make it so they understand it's all part of the plan
you and I we so valiant
we keep the world in balance with our gift of supertalents
tell everybody don't panic combine our powers sit back
watch God handle it, tell your friends
if you can walk you can dance.
if you can talk you can sing.
everybody's born with a beautiful gift.
now that ya know ain't that a beautiful thing?
it doesn't matter what they think
doesn't matter what they say
what only matters is the time that ya give in everyday.
little by little baby steps getcha moving
day by day keep on improving
moving mountains in such da slightest way.
try to keep the possibilities open, always in motion,
always seekin love
cuz where there's love there is a pathway.
feel it with your heart let your mind and soul follow
seek tomorrow every day's a new day
so just try to stay in shape
cuz if ya walk you can dance.
if you can talk you can sing.
everybody's born with a beautiful gift
now that ya know ain't that a beautiful thing?
it's such a beautiful thing...
aren't ya gettin' tired of seeing wasted potential
buildin' up into nothing, diggin atcha to ya very know-how?
it'll amount to nothin' more than a can-o-beans in this world
if ya never finally follow your true passion held in store now.
so why'd ya get one for the gipper?
shouldn't you deliver something for the children
that are whisperin' into your ears?
you better notice that they standing in your shadow
but just would ya look at all this light
you're shinin' at em bright and clear.
it's only up to you cuz only you can fully truly
put your heart into if it is what you really wanna do,
whatcha gotta do instead of flyin' the coop,
legitimately get the scoop.
evaluate your passion so ya sew your seeds
then eat your fruits... of your labor.
go ahead and savor
you've resisted the law of resistance
now look at what's on the table.
it's your potential staring straight in your face.
quite amazingly I'm saying it's deliciously true
cuz if ya walk you can dance.
if you can talk you can sing.
everybody's born with a beautiful gift
now that ya know ain't that a beautiful thing?
it's such a beautiful thing...
