Cast Of 'Peter Pan The British Musical' — Rich Damp Cake lyrics

Lyrics

Smee: And so Captain, how do ya reckon to make 'Rich Damp Cake'?
Oh, Smee.
Take a
Tin with baking powder
and some butter
and some sugar
collect some fruits and nuts
galore
Smee: Ooo
A few ounces of flour
to give it extra power
with twenty one eggs or more.
Smee: 21?
Cream the margarine
then add a little stricnine
a vital ingredient make no mistake.
My dear Smee, don’t you see?
We now have a recipe
for the lushiously dangerous
RICH DAMP CAKE!
Rich damp cake!
Pirates: Richly damp cake!
Poor little lost boys, easily led.
Rich damp cake!
Pirates: Richly damp cake!
One little bite and you’ll find them dead!
Smee: Then whatdya do, Captain?
Oh, Smee.
Then we’ll put it in the oven,
and wait 'til it has risen
and cover it with sugar that is green!
Smee: Eugh!
And in case there’s not enough
of that lovely sickly stuff
Smee: Add a little more stricnine?
Shut up, Smee
And then to make it gleam
smooth on the poisonous cream
and place it by the mermaid’s lake!
For they don’t have a mother,
a sister, or a brother
to warn them not to eat my
RICH DAMP CAKE!
Rich damp cake!
Pirates: Richly damp cake!
Fatal to boy, girl, mermaid or man!
Rich damp cake!
Pirates: Richly damp cake!
By Davy Jones we’ll finish off pan!
INTERMISSION
Pirates: Rich, damp,
lalalala!
Rich, damp,
lalalala
For they
don’t have a mother,
a sister, or a brother
tow warn them not to eat my
RICH DAMP CAKE!
& Pirates: Rich damp cake (Richly damp cake)
Poor little lost boys, easily led!
Rich damp cake (Richly damp cake)
One little bite and you’ll find them dead!
Rich damp cake (Richly damp cake)
Fatal to boy, girl, mermaid, or man.
Rich damp cake (richly damp cake)
By Davy Jones…
WE’LL FINISH! OFF! PAN!
All: *Laughter.*
