Lazy town cooking by the book lyrics

A pile on the candy
It’s such a pretty sight
It makes the food taste dandy
But my tummy hurts all night

Show

I’ll put in some ingredients
But keep the rest for me
I’m not just disobedient
I’m careful, can’t you see?

It’s a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake
If the way is hazy
You’ll gotta do the cooking by the book
You now you can’t be lazy!
Never use a messy recipe
The cake will end up crazy
If you do the cooking by the book, then you’ll have a cake
We gotta have it made
You now there I love cake
Finally it’s time to make a cake

Making food is just like science
With tools that bland and baste
And every fun appliance
Gives the food a different taste.

It’s a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake
If the way is hazy
You’ll gotta do the cooking by the book
You now you can’t be lazy!
Never use a messy recipe
The cake will end up crazy
If you do the cooking by the book, then you’ll have a cake
We gotta have it made
You now there I love cake
Finally it’s time to make a cake

We gotta have it made
You now there I love cake
Finally it’s time to make a – you’ll gotta do the cooking by the book! - cake

I pile on the Candy
It's such a pretty sight
It makes the food taste Dandy
But my tummy hurts all night

I'll put in some ingredients
But keep the rest for me
I'm not just disobedient
I'm careful, can't you see?

It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake
If the way is hazy
You gotta do the cooking by the book!
You know you can't be lazy.
Never use a messy recipe
The cake will end up crazy
If you do the cooking by the book
Then you'll have a cake
We gotta have it made
You know that I love cake
Finally it's time to make a cake

Making food is just like science
With tools that blend and baste
And every fine appliance
Gives the food a different taste

It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake
If the way is hazy
You gotta do the cooking by the book.
You know you can't be lazy
Never use a messy recipe
The cake will end up crazy
If you do the cooking by the book
Then you'll have a cake
We gotta have it made
You know that I love cake
Finally it's time to make a cake

We gotta have it made
You know that I love cake
Finally it's time to make a
You gotta do the cooking by the book!

(Ziggy)

Hot pile on the candy it's such a pretty sight it makes the food taste
dandy but my tummy hurts all night

(Stingy)
I'll put in some ingredients but keep the rest for me
I'm not just disobediant I'm careful can't you see

(Stephanie)

It's a piece of cake
to bake a pretty cake if the way is hazy
you gotta do the cooking by the book you know you can't be lazy
never use a messy recipe the cake would end up crazy
if you do it by the book then you'll have a cake
we gotta have it made you know that I love cake
finally it's time to make a cake

(Pixel)

Making food is just like science with tools that blend and baste
every fun appliance gives the food a different taste

(Stephanie)

It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake if the way is hazy
you gotta do the cooking by the book you know you can't be lazy
never use a messy recipe the cake will end up crazy
if you do the cooking by the book then you'll have a cake
we gotta have it made you know that I love cake
finally it's time to make a cake
we gotta have it made you know that I love cake
finally it's time to make a (you gotta do the cooking by the book) cake

Lyrics

Ziggy: I'll pile on the candy
It's such a pretty sight
It makes the food taste dandy
But my tummy hurts all night.

Stingy: I'll put in some ingredients
But keep the rest for me
I'm not just disobedient
I'm careful, can't you see?

Stephanie: It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake.

All: If the way is hazy!

Stephanie: You gotta do the cooking by the book
You know you can't be lazy
Never use a messy recipe
The cake will end up crazy
If you do the cooking by the book
Then you'll have a cake.

We gotta have it made
You know that I love cake
Finally it's time to make a cake.

Pixel: Making food is just like science(chorus: Bake a cake, Ziggy: Yeah!)
With tools that blend and baste (chorus: Bake a cake, Ziggy: Yeah!)
And every fun appliance
Gives the food a different taste. (Ziggy: Yeah)

Stephanie: It's a piece of cake to bake a pretty cake.

All: If the way is hazy!

Stephanie: You gotta do the cooking by the book
You know you can't be lazy
Never use a messy recipe
The cake will end up crazy
If you do the cooking by the book
Then you'll have a cake.

All: We gotta have it made
You know that I love cake
Finally it's time to make a cake
We gotta have it made
You know that I love cake
Finally it's time to make a...

Stephanie: You gotta do the cooking by the book.

All: ...Cake.
