Make it work, make it easy
Make it clever, craft it into pieces
Make it sweet, crimp the edges
Or make it sour and serve with lemon wedges
Even doubt can be delicious
And it washes off of all the dirty dishes
When its done, I can smile
It's on someone else's plate for a while
I'll place it on display, and then I'll slice and
Serve my worries away
I can fix this, I can twist it into
Sugar, Butter, covered pieces
Never mind what's underneath it
I have done it before
I'll bake me a door to help me get through
I learned that from you
Mama it's amazing what baking can do
Make it up, and surprise them
Tell them all my secrets but disguise them
So they dance on the tongues
Of the very people that they're secrets from
Make it soon, make it better, though better never lasts forever
I'll make it small, so it fits
Even this, even now, even as the walls come tumbling down
Even as I can't stop remembering how
Every door we ever made, we never once walked out
Something I never got the chance to ask her about
So with flour on my hands
I'll show them all how goddamn happy I am
Sugar, butter, flour, don't let me down
Let's see the next amazing thing baking does now
