Cake Shop Love

On Album: The Great 1980s Illegal Duck Experiment

Lyrics

I was working as a chef in a patisserie
And living on my own
I’d given up hope of finding love
I was used to being alone

One day I saw the girl of my dreams
Well I couldn’t believe my eyes
And when she walked into my shop
I felt my pastry start to rise
She had beautiful eyes and beautiful hair
A smile that wasn’t fake
And when she spoke, her beautiful voice
Was the icing on the cake

I tasted love in the cake shop
I never thought I would
Baking love in the cake shop
And I found that it was good

I took her to dinner and we had fun
We really started to flirt
But then we wanted a little more
So went to the shop for some desert

She didn’t know what to try first
So her gave her a big selection
She placed her hands on my iced buns
And tucked into my confection
She wrapped her lips around my eclair
I felt a strange sensation
She had cream all around her mouth
I had a feeling of elation

I tasted love in the cake shop
I never thought I would
Baking love in the cake shop
And I found that it was good

Well things went great and life was good
I saw her every night
Sure, she put on a little weight
But I like clothes that fit tight

But then one day she came to the shop
With a tear in her eye
She said she couldn’t see me no more
And so I asked her why
She said she’d fallen for someone else
And when I asked her who
She said “The guy who runs the veggie shop
I can’t get enough of his tofu…”

I tasted love in the cake shop
I never thought I would
Baking love in the cake shop
And I found that it was good

She hurt me bad but I’m OK
I made a brand new start
I’ll always remember my cake shop love
I guess you could say that she broke my cakey-bakey heart…

I tasted love in the cake shop
Baking love in the cake shop
