What's that aroma, honey
Comin' from the kitchen?

She replied with some extra-hot
Ingredients to mention:

Half a cup of sugar...
Whole cup of lovin'

I wanna see what my baby's
Cookin' in her oven


Sweeten with your icing...
Moistening, and rising

Time to blow out my candle
-Getting too hot to handle

Spreadin' love all over it
With a cozy oven mitt

Lickin' fingers clean of frosting
Sticky fingers, stickin' softly

Flour's in your hair...
-We're leavin' crumbs everywhere


Temperature's risin'...
The timer was timin'

Now, your cake needs righted
It's a little lop-sided

Can't wait until I bite it
But, we got too excited

Forgot to peek, and take a look
I think we're gettin' over-cooked

-Now, it's too late
For me to pound that cake


And, your cake is out of hand
...I just don't understand

The icing on this cake
Says "Dean", not Dan!!!
