| THE CAKE THAT MAKES YOU SCREAM ! | |
|
Dave Ward | |
Underneath the icing, Underneath the cream, Underneath the marzipan Is the cake that makes you scream. It's filled with sticky spiders, Slugs and earwigs too, And swarms of tiny beetles Swimming round in glue. Underneath the icing, Underneath the cream, Underneath the marzipan Is the cake that makes you scream. It's filled with vampires' fingernails And all their fingers too, Crawling from the oozing sludge Just to tickle you. Underneath the icing, Underneath the cream, Underneath the marzipan Is the cake that makes you scream. It's filled with twisted nightmares Where strawberries turn blue, And fishes legs and donkey eggs Growl and howl and moo. Underneath the icing, Underneath the cream, Underneath the marzipan Is the cake that makes you scream. When you cut this curious cake You don't know what you'll find; Be careful or the slimey jam Will climb inside your mind. But even more important, Be careful with the knife: It'll try and slice your tongue out Before you can take a bite. Then you won't taste the icing And you won't taste the cream, And the marzipan will slobber out In a sickening, shapeless scream. | |
