Karaoké What Baking Can Do Waitress (musical) (Jessie Mueller)

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 it's 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
