These are lyrics from the song (Counting flowers on the wall) it is a catchy tune, a pity is the lyrics do not make much sense. Coffee is an adult beverage, and Captain Kangaroo a most juvenile kiddy show.

A different perspective:

It is a refrain from the song, "Flowers on the Wall," from the 1965 Statler Brothers single released in September. The lyrics illustrate the emptiness of loneliness by highlighting the pointless endeavors of the speaker. It can be surmised that the speaker has recently ended a relationship with the second party to whom he is speaking.

Lyrics: "Flowers on the Wall" Statler Brothers, 1965I keep hearing you're concerned about my happiness.

All that thought you're giving me is conscience, I guess.

If I were walking in your shoes, I wouldn't worry none.

While you and your friends are worrying 'bout me, I'm having lots of fun.

Counting flowers on the wall,

That don't bother me at all.

Playing Solitaire till dawn,

With a deck of fifty-one.

Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.

Now, don't tell me I've nothing to do.

Last night I dressed in tails, pretended I was on the town.

As long as I can dream, it's hard to slow this swinger down.

So please don't give a thought to me, I'm really doing fine.

You can always find me here, having quite a time.

Counting flowers on the wall,

That don't bother me at all.

Playing Solitaire till dawn,

With a deck of fifty-one.

Smoking cigarettes and watching Captain Kangaroo.

Now, don't tell me I've nothing to do.

Well, it's good to see you, I must go, I know I look a fright.

Anyway my eyes are not accustomed to this light.

And my shoes are not accustomed to this hard concrete.

So I must go back to my room and make my day complete.

Counting flowers on the wall,

That don't bother me at all.

How did sir francis drake get the recipe for the coffee cake that would later make him famous?

Sir Francis Drake did not actually create a coffee cake recipe. He was an English sea captain and explorer in the late 16th century, known for his circumnavigation of the globe and his role in defeating the Spanish Armada. The association of Drake with coffee cake may stem from his voyages and the exchange of goods, including spices and ingredients that contributed to various recipes. However, there is no historical evidence linking him directly to the creation of coffee cake.
