I'll pile on the sweets,
it's such a pretty sight
It makes the food taste a treat,
but my tummy hurts all night
I'll put in some ingredients,
but keep the rest for me
I'm not just disobedient,
I'm careful,
can't you see?
It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake
If the way is hazy,
you gotta do the cooking by the book
You know you can't be lazy,
never use a messy recipe
The cake will end up crazy,
if you do the cooking by the book
Then you'll have a cake, we gotta have it made
You know that I love cake,
finally it's time to make a cake
Making food is just like science,
with tools that blend and baste
And every fun appliance gives the food a different taste
It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake If the way is hazy,
you gotta do the cooking by the book
You know you can't be lazy,
never use a messy recipe The cake will end up crazy,
if you do the cooking by the book
Then you'll have a cake,
we gotta have it made You know that I love cake,
finally it's time to make a cake
You gotta do the cooking by the book!
