I\'m shopping in the town
near my favourite cake shop
I need a sugar fix
so I’ll really have to stop
I’m having friends to tea,
so I think it’s only fair
To buy my friend Patricia,
a nice chocolate eclair
Connie loves a cake
and it’s always lots of fun
Watching her dissect
a pink-coated iced bun
Alice will be coming
and she’ll bring her sister Pam
They both like nothing better,
than a doughnut filled with jam
A Battenberg of pink and yellow
is one of Carol\'s favourite cakes
She divides the squares into four,
oh what a mess she makes
A nice Victoria Sponge
is Jess\'s favourite cake
But the ones in the shop aren’t as good
as the ones her Grandma used to make
Wendy is quite partial
to a round, plump Eccles cake
Filled with currants and buttery filling
They\'re messy when the pastry starts to flake
The cakes are on the cake-stand,
it’s quite a sight to see
I’m trying to cut down my sugar intake
But they look really tempting to me
My friends are choosing their favourite cake
But I don\'t think I’ll risk it
I\'ll just sit and watch them, with a nice cup of tea
And a nice modest Digestive biscuit
