B-52`s The Cake Lyrics

Cake Lyrics

Take a little, take a little nip,

 Take a little sip, take a little more.

 Spread icing nice and thick between the layers.

 Ooh let it drip down the sides. who cares.

 Done with the batter.

 

 I am watching it drip down the sides

 (if you want a better batter better beat it harder.)

 I am watching it drip down the sides

 I said according to my recipe, you put it on a slow bake

 According to my recipe, you put it on a slow bake.

 

 I am watching it drip down the sides

 (if you want a better batter better beat it harder.)

 I am watching it drip down the sides

 I said according to my recipe, you put it on a slow bake

 (takes a long time for it to rise)

 According to my recipe, you put it on a slow bake.

 (let it drip right down the sides)

 According to my recipe

 (who cares)

 I can't wait to put the icing on the cake.

 I-i can't wait to put the icing on the cake.

 Caaaake.

 

 Hey, you know what i'd really like to do?

 Say wha'?

 I feel like makin' a cake

 Ooh wah what kind of cake do you want?

 Umm, how about ... pineapple upside-down cake?

 Maybe a chocolate devil's food cake.

 Wah, nothin' like a chocolate devil's food cake.

 Ooh, how about an angel cake?

 Umm, some cinnamon?

 Yea, sure.

 Sugar?

 Yea, uh huh. i swear.

 You got a pan the right size?

 A pan?

 It says in this cookbook it takes a long time to rise.

 I read that. now, beware.

 Let's get this thing in the oven.

 

 Take a little, take a little nip,

 Take a little sip, take a little more.

 Spread icing nice and thick between the layers.

 Ooh let it drip down the sides. who cares.

 Done with the batter.

 

 I am watching it drip down the sides

 (if you want a better batter better beat it harder.)

 I am watching it drip down the sides

 I said according to my recipe, you put it on a slow bake

 According to my recipe, you put it on a slow bake.

 

 Hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah ...

 I can't wait to put the icing on the cake.

 Hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah hah ...

 250 strokes to beat it, i just can't wait to eat it.
