Ode to Mixie

A million years ago I was really bored at work and spending way too much time on the interwebs talking to my e-friends. It was right before Thanksgiving, 2006, and everyone was talking about the KitchenAid Mixers they were hoping to get for Christmas. I decided to write a song about mine (which I had named Mixie) to distract me from writing a report about shampoo.

Miss you much, Angi, Sara, and LT!

Sing to the tune of "Caress Me Down" by Sublime. (Translation is at the bottom.)

Mucho gusto, me llamo Mixie!
I'm hungrier than monster, cookie!
And if you want to not be hungry then
Go and get me a recipe
You hate me cuz I got what you need,
a kitchen aid mixer with a whisky thingy
and if you want to bake some brownies just
get the eggs out and dump them in me

So I go into the pantry and I get some food
Because I'm in a cooking kind of mood
Chocolate is something that I really must include
If I want a dessert that will be fun to chew
And it went Whirr!
And the mixer goes round and round
Whirr!
That's the mixing sound - it went Whirr!
And the mixer goes round and round
Whirr! That's the mixing sound!
When I need a snackie I just visit Mixie
And in a little while there will be cake or brownies
While I mix it up I lick the spoonie
Unless I'm making bread because that's just yucky
I love my mixer that I got on christmas day
My pookie picked it out for me and passed it my way
It's silver with a bowl lift and a handle to turn
Does everything but make sure that the food doesn't burn

My Mixie, I love it, because it does it all
Just remember to scrape the bowl
My Mixie, I love it, the attachments are so cool
It's such a crazy useful tool

And it went Whirr!
And the mixer goes round and round
Whirr!
That's the mixing sound - it went Whirr!
And the mixer goes round and round
Whirr! That's the mixing sound!

Me gusta oatmeal cookies, (I like oatmeal cookies)
Me gusta pizza dough, (I like pizza dough)
Pero la cosa que me gusta mas es chocolate brownies, (but the thing I love most is chocolate brownies)

Ponga la nalga en la aire if you love brownie bars, (put your [butt] in the air if you love brownie bars)
Ponga la nalga en la aire and you'll get a gold star, (put your [butt] in the air and you'll get a gold star)

No tenga miedo, it's only Mixie, (don't be afraid, it's only Mixie)
Take your recipes, y les mandan a mi, (take your recipes and send them to me)
Levanta, levanta, tienes que gritar, (Get up, Get up, you gotta shout)
Levanta, levanta, tienes que bailar. (Get up Get up, you gotta dance)

  1. You should do a youtube clip of it.
    writing a report about shampoo - that sounds unusual but probably not as good as your mixie song
