Cake Shop

Swell Maps

Cake shop girls grow fingernails

dead long and rather sharp.

They paint them glace cherry red

and yellow marzipan.

Scoring lines upon the backs Of tender chocolate mice

I would like to buy a wedding cake for you and me!



You've always been a cake shop girl as far as I recall

ballroom dancer minatures 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.



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
