I have the sweetest gig on the planet,
But I have a confession to make
Along with my cherry tarts and 7-layer cake.
With what I rake in, my life is set.
Mile high cream pies, the best you can get,
I love watching caramel bubble and quake.
I have the sweetest gig on the planet,
But I have a confession to make.
People think I'm an angel and legit,
My candy ribbons cause many a toothache
Keeping dentists in business, I get my take.
Holding their markers makes it a safe bet.
I have the sweetest gig on the planet.
