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.
