I'm a little cookie, yes I am
And I was made by the cookie man
And on my way from the cookie pan
A little piece broke off of me
A little piece broke off of me, uh-huh
A little piece broke off of me, uh-huh
But I can taste just as good, uh-huh
As a regular cookie can
I'm a little chocolate bar, I am
And I was made by the chocolate bar man
And on my way to the chocolate stand
I got a little bend in me
I got a little bend in me, uh-huh
I got a little bend in me, uh-huh
But I can taste just as good, uh-huh
As a regular chocolate bar can
I'm a little tootsie roll, yes I am
And I was made by the tootsie roll man
And on my way from the tootsie roll land
I got a little twist in me
I got a little twist in me, uh-huh
I got a little twist in me, uh-huh
But I can taste just as good, uh-huh
As a regular tootsie roll can
I'm a little gum drop, yes I am
And I was made by the gum drop man
On my way from the sugar can
I got a little dent in me
I got a little dent in me, uh-huh
I got a little dent in me, uh-huh
But I can taste just as good, uh-huh
As a regular gum drop can
Oh, I'm a little cookie, yes I am
And I was made by the cookie man
And on my way from the cookie pan
A little piece broke off of me
Now I ain't as round as I might be
But I taste good just wait and see
And I can love back twice as hard
As a regular cookie can
Pete Seeger (1919-2014) è stato un cantautore, musicista e attivista americano di fama mondiale. Nato a New York da una famiglia di artisti, Seeger si distinse per la sua voce potente e il suo impegno sociale. Iniziò la sua carriera negli anni '30 con gruppi folk come The Almanac Singers, promuovendo temi di giustizia sociale e lotta contro le ingiustizie. Durante gli anni '50, Seeger divenne un simbolo della musica folk americana, influenzando generazioni di artisti con il suo stile diretto e coinvolgente. La sua canzone più famosa, "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?", è diventata un inno per la pace e contro la guerra. Vediamo anche come ha contribuito alla nascita del movimento ambientalista negli anni '60 con brani come "If I Had a Hammer". Seeger fu spesso oggetto di critiche politiche durante la Guerra Fredda, ma rimase un'icona della musica folk americana fino alla sua morte nel 2014. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo "American Industrial Ballads" (1956) e "Rainbow Race" (1963). Alcuni dei suoi brani più rappresentativi sono: "Where Have All the Flowers Gone?", "If I Had a Hammer", "Turn! Turn! Turn!" e "Guantanamera".

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
