tell your tale ! :: Since both Lily and Shell are far too shy to sing in front of other people, neither has ever really tried to write a song before. With Shell also not having much knowledge about goomas in general aside from what Lily has told them, they find this idea even more challenging. Still, the two are not going to just give up, so they both sit there, staring at a blank piece of paper and a pencil. They are struggling to come up with a good enough idea that they could make up an entire song about. While they eventually manage to come up with a few goomas-related thoughts, like snow goobies and goomas lights, neither has any clue how to write an entire song about any of them. So, they usually end up just scratching the idea and going back to thinking.
"Decorating cookies?" Shell suggests eventually, after both have been silent and deep in thought for several minutes.
"Sure, it is worth a shot," Lily agrees. At least they could include a bunch of different candies for decorations and shapes for the cookies, maybe that would be enough to write a full length song?
...Though they still need to find a way to make most of it rhyme.
"I wonder if we could use a bunch of baking puns instead of making it rhyme," Lily comments.
"I mean, the instructions never said we couldn't," Shell points out.
The two end up writing a long list of baking puns.
Nearly every other line is about chocolate.
They both absolutely love it.
Well, this might not be a traditional song, but at least they had fun making it! That's the important thing, right?
