The Great British Bake Off Musical - Prologue Lyrics
The song is written by Pippa Cleary and Jake Brunger.
Aaah, aaah
COMPANY:
In the beginning
There was flour, butter,
And milk and free range eggs
And golden caster sugar
(Sugar, sugar, sugar)
But they were separate entities
For they had not been mixed together
JIM:
'Til man said to woman thus:
KIM:
I think you'll find woman said to man
What if we put it in the oven?
JIM: (spoken)
Huh? Man make fire, not oven
KIM:
Babe, you've gotta build me an oven
COMPANY:
So man built a pit of fire
Full of cinders and earth and clay
And woman took a mixing bowl
And put it in without delay
And man said;
JIM:
Look, it's rising!
COMPANY:
And woman said;
KIM:
Heavens above, I think it's rising!
JIM & KIM:
What the hell is happening
Why is it rising?
COMPANY:
(Aaah)
Then a miracle happened that day
(Aaah)
For out of the maggots and clay
Emerged this fluffy
Moist creation that was light
KIM:
It's so light
JIM:
Give us a bite
KIM:
Spongy!
JIM:
(Gasps) Soft!
KIM:
Gooey!
JIM:
And sweet!
KIM:
Oh Dennis, what have we done?
COMPANY:
The two were so afraid
JIM:
I'm scared, Susan
COMPANY:
What was this thing they made?
KIM:
This could change the world!
COMPANY:
A terrible mistake!
JIM:
But what shall we call it?
COMPANY:
Cake!
KIM:
(Spoken) blimey, that was a bit intense
JIM: (spoken)
Yeah, that polyester really chafes
JIM & KIM:
Welcome to the Great British Bake Off!
