The Cornflakes and Milk Song

I am putting this song up on the web only because I have never met anyone else who knows it besides Elizabeth Christmann (nee Sprower) and the people she taught it to. I did a few searches on the web to see if someone had posted the lyrics (I always maintain that you can find anything on the web given enough time and resourcefulness) and I didn't find it. I know other people must know it because she learned it at a camp she went to, so there are other cornflakey people out there. But so far, I haven't found anyone else who has heard of it. So here are the lyrics. If you know it, drop me an email. Maybe we both know Elizabeth!

Your eyes are like diamonds. Your hair is like silk
(ba da da da dum)
I'll love you always like cornflakes and milk.
(ba da da da dum)
So please help me to love you as much as I love
cornflakes and milk
(ba da da da dum)
cornflakes and milk
(ba da da da dum)
cornflakes and milk my love...

[this part goes much slower]

My bowl of cornflakes and my darling you
(ba daaa daaaa daaaa dum) [sung provocatively]
Without you both my life would be
ICKY POO [shouted]
(ba da da da dum)
[fast again]
So please help me to love you as much as I love
cornflakes and milk
(ba da da da dum)
cornflakes and milk
(ba da da da dum)
cornflakes and milk my love.
