Mmm Cake

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
