[Verse 1] The spirit's always willing when it's fed When it's not fed the spirit's dead And if the spirit really wants to dance It needs a little more than bread To cure the spirit's ache Give it a little cake! [Chorus] Come, you all kick up the cakewalk Because we got cake Lady Luck finally learn to bake Who said bread? Kick up the cakewalk Cause we got pie [Verse 2] Here and now, not in the by and by Say good bye to trouble and famine It's time to laugh Laugh, boy, you can examine The fatted calf [Chorus]
