SPOONERISMS XXXVI

The Enigma

The cuewords to this flat, ONE and TWO, are two-word phrases that are spoonerisms - that is, their initial sounds have been switched (right lane - light rain). 

My aunt and uncle have a shop,
They call it Doughnut Joy.
Their young son works in there as well,
Though still an eighth-grade boy.
It was his shift when I went by
And joined the longish queue.
"Give me a ONE," I said to him,
And that is what  my TWO.

HINTS:
ONE = _ _ _ _ _ ,   _ _ _
TWO = _ _ _ _ _ _   _ _ _
 
Answers:
 
DOZEN, KID
COUSIN DID
