We're gonna bake
a sunshine cake,
it's everything nice, it's sugar and spice,
it's a cinch.
We ought to bake a sunshine cake,
it does more good than
a big thick steak.
Well start, you start with,
a tablespoon of trouble
And then you add,
a smile and let it bubble up
We'd ought to make a sunshine cake
It really isn't so hard to make
How now, fresh tears,
a pound or two of pleasure
Kind words,
you needn't use a measure cup
Any questions?
Then we proceed.
Well, it's not from a recipe book.
And you don't have to be a good cook.
Or run to the oven and look.
With such a simple dish,
all you do is wish.
So why not bake a sunshine cake?
Of course, it may keep your
dreams awake.
But friends say there's
nothing like the flavor.
Don't wait to do your friends a favor
An d for goodness sake
What are we waiting for?
Let's bake a sunshine cake
Oh well, we've got the right ingredients
So let's proceed
Cheerful dispositions, that's all we need
We need some happy poetry,
we need a lot
And then you put them all together,
tell me what have you got?
Remember worry,
that's one thing that we must forget
So put on your slippers, light a cigarette
You add a little feelin'
in your measured cup
And then you give it to the lady,
let her stir it up
Stir it up! Stir it up!
Stir it up! Stir it up!
Stir it up! Up! Up!
Ba -oo -ba -oo -ba
Stir it up!
It's got vitamins A and
vitamins B.
Vitamins L -O -V -E.
If you're fat it's for that.
If you're thin, pack it in.
What's wrong if you get a double grin?
We ought to bake a
sunshine cake.
We ought to bake a sunshine cake.
We ought to bake a sunshine cake.
Of course, we'll wait for
friends to do a favor
And for goodness' your friends a favor
An d for goodness'
do your friends a favor
And for goodness' sake,
what are we waiting for?
Let's bake a sunshine cake!
That was very happy, you know.
