Lyrics

I'll pile on the candy
It's such a pretty sight
It makes the food taste dandy
But my tummy hurts all night.

I'll put in some ingredients
But keep the rest for me
I'm not just a self entitled prick
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
We gotta have it made
You know that I love cake
Finally it's time to make a...

You gotta do the cooking by the book.

...Cake.

  • NOTE: In the UK version of the song, the first and third lines were changed to I'll pile on the sweets and It makes the food taste a treat, respectively.
