Lyrics
CAKE
by Dean Holtermann & Shannon Conley
she's the one you're taking home to mother
I'm the one you wanna make a secret lover
would you throw it all away
for a piece of cake?
WELL I AM NOT YOUR CAKE
WELL I AM NOT YOUR CAKE
BUT OH, I STILL WANT YOU
you could be the one to swallow your pride,
idle betrayal can't be justified
would you throw it all away
for a piece of cake?
WELL I AM NOT YOUR CAKE
WELL I AM NOT YOUR CAKE
BUT OH, YOU TALK SO SWEETLY
BUT OH, SEEING IS BELIEVING
panic is growing, the hunger is swelling inside,
I fear that you are drowning in an ocean of your own desire,
this is not about me, i musn't let you toy with my mind
you tell me that you love me, but i know you're only killin' time
AND I , I AM NOT YOUR CAKE
NO I, I AM NOT YOUR CAKE
SOLO
AND OH, YOU TALK SO SWEETLY
BUT OH, SEEING IS BELIEVING
AND I , I AM NOT YOUR CAKE
NO I, I AM NOT YOUR CAKE
Oh but when you kiss me,
nothing is for certain,
it's everything i'm missing,
stand up & be counted
