Frank Sinatra — Sunshine Cake lyrics

Lyrics

We ought to bake a sunshine cake,
It does more good than a big thick steak,
(Start with a tablespoon of trouble,)
(Then add a smile and let it bubble off.)
(It isn’t really so hard to make)
Fresh tears upon the tomb of pleasure,
(Kind words you needn’t use a major cut)
It’s not from a recipe book,
You don’t have to be a good cook.
(Or run to the oven and look)
Of course it may keep your dreams awake.
Friends say there’s nothing like the flavor,
Don’t wait to do your friends a favor,
It’s got vitamins A, vitamins B
(Vitamins L-O-V-E)
If you’re fat, it’s for that,
(If you’re thin, stuff it in)
It’s not from a recipe book
(You don’t have to be a good cook.)
Friends say there ain’t nothing like the flavor,
(Don't wait to do your friends a favor.)
