I am the baker
I bake the cake
Make no mistake
I like to bake
Once I discover
My innate behavior
To mix, to make, to bake!

Up in the morning
To start my work
I cannot help wanting to bake a dessert
Like a gladiator
About to meet his fate
I enter my arena
Bow my head and start to bake!

Yeah
You want a cookie?

Flour, Sugar, Milk,
I send out for more
An unsung hero I need no reward
A short vacation I’d like to take
After I bake a chocolate cake

Sometimes It’s mighty lonely
When you’re all alone
(With a loaf of bread)
But I’m just doing my job
The best that I can
So the children can be fed

(B!)
I am the baker
(A!)
I bake the cake
(K!)
Make no mistake, I like to bake
(ER!)
Once I discover
(BAKER!)
My innate behavior
(BAKER!)
To mix, to make, to bake!
(BAKER!)

(B!)
I am the baker
(A!)
I bake the cake
(K!)
You’re the decorator and you decorate
(ER!)
You take the credit
(BAKER!)
But I slaved away
(BAKER!)
I mixed, I made, I baked!

Flour, Sugar, Milk,
I send out for more
An unsung hero I need no reward
A short vacation I’d like to take
After I bake a chocolate cake

Sometimes It’s mighty lonely
When you’re all alone
(With a loaf of bread)
But I’m just doing my job
The best that I can
So the children can be fed

I own it - the doughnut
You want a cookie?
How about a muffin?

(B!)
I am the baker
(A!)
I bake the cake
(K!)
Make no mistake, I love to bake
(ER!)
Once I discover
(BAKER!)
My innate behavior
(BAKER!)
To mix, to make, to bake!
(BAKER!)

(B!)
I am the baker
(A!)
I bake the cake
(K!)
You’re the decorator and you decorate
(ER!)
You took the credit
(BAKER!)
But I slaved away
(BAKER!)
I mixed, I made, I baked!

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
