Pat-a-Cake, Pat-a-Hell

[Intro] Pat-a-cake, pat-a-cake, Baker's man. Bake me a nightmare As fast as you can. [Verse 1] Roll out the dough, Light up the flame, Carve little symbols And write someone's name. Put it in the oven, Listen to it scream, When the timer starts ringing, You'll wake from the dream. [Chorus] Pat-a-cake, pat-a-hell, Ring that fucking bell. Bake it black, Bake it red, Feed the Devil what you made. Pat-a-cake, pat-a-hell, Something's crawling from the well. Mark it with a D, Throw it in the flame, And don't you dare Say your own name. [Verse 2] The baker wore a crooked smile, His oven burned for miles. Every cake came out with eyes, Watching every fucking child. He'd decorate them with black icing, Sprinkle bones across the top. And once the Devil tasted one, The bakery would never stop. [Chorus] Pat-a-cake, pat-a-hell, Ring that fucking bell. Bake it black, Bake it red, Feed the Devil what you made. Pat-a-cake, pat-a-hell, Something's crawling from the well. Mark it with a D, Throw it in the flame, And don't you dare Say your own name. [Verse 3] One little cake began to move, Then another joined the dance. They crawled across the counter Like they were waiting for a chance. The baker laughed and opened up The basement underneath. A thousand tiny red eyes stared Through rows of rotten teeth. [Breakdown] PAT! PAT! BEAT THAT DOUGH! BAKE! BAKE! LET IT GROW! CUT! CUT! MARK THE NAME! RING THAT BELL! FEED THE FLAME! [Verse 4] At midnight came a knocking, Three taps against the glass. The baker opened up the door, And let the Devil pass. The Devil took a little cake, And smiled from ear to ear. Then every oven opened wide, And Hell came pouring here. [Final Chorus] Pat-a-cake, pat-a-hell, Hear the ovens fucking yell. Bake it black, Bake it red, Every nightmare must be fed. Pat-a-cake, pat-a-hell, Now the whole damn town can tell: When the baker rings that bell, Something's coming straight from Hell. [Outro] Pat-a-cake... Pat-a-cake... Baker's man... You made the cake. Now eat it.
