Snow White Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Snow White we're ready
I think

The way to bake a delicious cake
To make a princess proud
Is to use all the right ingredients
And none that are not allowed
You said it

It's fun to bake a delicious cake
But make sure you prepare
Here's a list of the things you'll need
To bake a cake you'll be proud to share

There's cake flower, baking powder
Sugar, shortening, salt
We got baking soda
If that cake falls, it's your fault
Oh grumpy

Buttermilk should not be spilt
The eggs should all be cracked
Careful

Pure vanilla, water too
And any mixing bowl will do
A great big baking pan
Chocolate for a chocolate cake
If that's your baking plan

Gosh, that's a lot of ingredients
Could we go over them again?

There's cake flower, baking powder
Sugar, shortening, salt
We got baking soda
If that cake falls, it's your fault
I'm warning ya

Buttermilk should not be spilt
The eggs should all be cracked

Pure vanilla, water too
And any mixing bowl will do
A great big baking pan
Got the pan
Chocolate for a chocolate cake
If that's your baking plan

Oh, that's perfect, I think you've got it
Says you

Before the cake goes into the oven
Mix your ingredients well
Lick your fingers and add some love
And then bake till you hear the bell
Where's the bell, oh?

If you learn to bake a delicious cake
You can be proud to share

Now let mother take a little break
And princess go brush your hair

Before she goes, let's go for our list
One tore mime, ah, one more time, alright

There's cake flower, baking powder
Sugar, shortening, salt, yeah
We got baking soda
And the crummy cake's your fault

Buttermilk should not be spilt
The eggs should all be cracked, ow

Pure vanilla, water too
And any mixing bowl will do
A great big baking pan
Chocolate for a chocolate cake
If that's your baking plan

Ha, what about the icing?
Oops, I almost forgot

Need some spicing, add some icing
Pink or white or blue
Plop a candle on the top
And it's happy birthday too





That was fun
