The Lyrics

Hi guys, I know I already did one homage to Bake Off, but such a British phenomenon needs a second one!
Now that Bake Off's at an end
There's no way that my heart will mend.
All the cream that they've been piping,
And the many cakes they have been icing,
And the soufflés that will never be cooked again
What a shame.

Now it's goodbye to Bake Off.

Finding another cooking show
But I just can't find the remote.
Need my fix of pastries right now!
They've pulled it off again somehow.
That Eiffel Tower cake is quite a spectacular sight,
How's it upright?

Now it's goodbye to Bake Off.

And in the Bake Off tent I saw
Blackberry muffins that were raw.
Oven doors that were squeaking.
Scones that were not rising.
And pies that nearly dropped on the floor.
Careful there.

Goodbye to Bake Off.

Paul said “people, stop your woe,
To Channel 4 it will go.
I'll be on there, hope to see you,
I can do this without Mel or Sue.”
But the public would not accept the sell.

Credits rolled.
It's farewell to Bake Off.

Will the Channel 4 show make the grade
Now that they have paid?
And will the public come out of mourning?
Or will they just find it very boring?
If this works their salary will double
In profit from the year before.
Or even more.

Final farewell to Bake Off.
