about

This song is a politically charged rant which seeks to challenge the notion that Jaffa Cakes are in fact a cake rather than a biscuit. The 1991 court decision by Potter QC should be overturned immediately and McVities should start paying VAT on them like any other biscuit.

There's a video to accompany this song here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3f1LCimMdhY

lyrics

I'm the kind of guy was self raised
want to have and eat my cake
everybody needs their own space
wants a bigger slice of the pie

don't strive for balance I know excellent bakers
best recipes in the world
steady girl
as the sugar in my blood drops feel uneasy
someone's gonna get themselves killed

do you like keylime pie?
I've been dreaming bout my cherry pie
I've been dreaming bout the cherry on top
but I'll let it slide

Everyone's on the take
so let them eat cake
it's easy to see you have a disease
I know cause I tried

Battenberg, Lemon Tarte, Jaffa Cakes don't make me laugh
ginger bread, madeira, parkin parkin parkin
cheesecake, chocolate cake, with chocolate flakes and icing
birthday cake, wedding cake, funeral cake funeral cake

do you like keylime pie?
I've been dreaming bout my cherry pie
I've been dreaming bout the cherry on top
but I'll let it slide

Everyone's on the take
so let them eat cake
it's easy to see you have a disease
I know cause I tried

Battenberg, Lemon Tarte, Jaffa Cakes don't make me laugh
ginger bread, madeira, parkin parkin parkin
cheesecake, chocolate cake, with chocolate flakes and icing
birthday cake, wedding cake, funeral cake funeral cake

hindenberg, circling sharks
things go bump in the dark
give him head in you car
park him park him park him
he's a fake, she's opaque
thunderbolts bring lightening
you'll be late for you own wake
and funeral cake funeral cake
