A Tribute to Mary Berry(?)

lyrics

I thought it about time that I should woo my valentine,
And put my hidden skill-set to the test.
I'll find it very scary, so I'll say a Hail Mary
And hope that she can guide me to the flavour of success.

How would you like to try my finger sandwiches?
How'd you feel about some clotted cream?
You might enjoy the feeling of sipping on Darjeeling
Nibble on my cupcakes and you'll know just what I mean.
I hope you find my sponges light and fluffy.
My freshly made preserves taste good to me.
I'm positively sure you will adore my petit-four,
So won't you join me for Afternoon Tea?

Cherry Pie, Teacake, Bakewell
Florentine, Shortbread Biscuit
- Try these cucumber sandwiches
- Viennise swirls and macaroons
--Banana loaf or lemon drizzle cake
--Sultana scones and Coffee walnut bake
Once it's scone it's scone scone scone...

How would you like to try my finger sandwiches?
How'd you feel about some clotted cream?
You might enjoy the feeling of sipping on Darjeeling
Nibble on my cupcakes and with pleasure you'll be reeling,
And I hope you'll find my sponges light and fluffy.
My freshly made preserves taste good to me.
I'm positively sure you will adore my petit-four,
So won't you join me for Afternoon Tea?

My cookbooks I've been thumbing since I knew you were coming
My beating heart's a flutter - I've even churned the butter!
And if it turns out rotten - forgive my soggy bottom
So join me - won't you join me for afternoon tea?
