Wakes up in her forties
Somewhere in the suburbs, with a
Flatpack for a husband and a
Robin's nest of dullards
Dreams of disappearing
Knows too well it’s too late, yes she
Knows its Church Bazaar and she
Accepts her Village Fetes
Not sure she will make it
Sure knows how to fake it
Somehow she can take it
As long as she keeps on baking
Sleptwalked through her thirties
Twenty years un-dreaming, now she
Wakes up in bright darkness, counts to
Ten - no need for screaming
Smile as smooth as icing,
Mellow melodrama, yes, it's
Plain that's she's a flower, that's been
Picked for Aga Saga
Now she's sure she'll make it
Doesn't need to fake it
She can always take it
As long as she keeps on dreaming
As long as she keeps on baking, but ….
Why's nobody tasting all the
Cakes that she's been baking? Stale and
Silent, clingfilm crippling, bet this
Never happened to Mr Kipling ...
