Cake Shop

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Cake shop girls grow fingernails dead long and rather sharp They paint them glace cherry red and yellow marzipan Scoring lines along the backs of tender chocolate mice I would like to buy a wedding cake for you and me [Verse 2] You've always been a cake shop girl, as far as I recall Ballroom dancer miniatures alongside Cherokees Cake shop girl, oh cake shop girl, I'd fall on bended knees I should like to buy a wedding cake for you and me [Verse 3] Confectioners don't eat a thing that's made inside their shops Bottles of crushed beetle can be bought to turn things red Window front displays are made for only perfect things I should like to substitute a cake for you and me
