Don't Send Me Home Lyrics

The Great British Bake Off Musical - Don't Send Me Home Lyrics


The song is written by Pippa Cleary and Jake Brunger.

Its week three in the Bake Off tent
And tensions are getting high
(They're getting high)
They're pinning all their hopes and dreams
On a miniature key lime pie
Will the judges be impressed?
Can they produce their very best
Within the time?
(There's no more time,
We're out of time)

Now the judges must decide
(Did I blow my chance in the signature?)
Surely they will score me high
For my mini misogynists from literature
My tiny tarte tatin has fallen on the floor
Will they troll me, or console me
If I stay on channel four?

Don't send me home
I don't wanna be the next to go
Don't send me home
'Cause it means so much to be on this show
We've loved every single second
But now we fear our place is threatened
Don't send me home
(Don't send me home)
Russell
I'm going home
Big hug, big hug
I'm going home
(Big hug, big hug)
Give him a cuddle, a snuggly wuggle
I'm going home

Another week in the Bake Off tent
And it's all about biscuits
(All about biscuits, yeah)
I've never made a ginger snap
But I guess I'll have to risk it
Maybe I should whisk it
Step one, make the dough
As if that's something I should know
What's the sugar ratio
Don't know
(Don't know, don't know)

Beat, batter, mix, blend
Will the drama never end
Will your ginger snap go 'snap'
(Snap, snap it like that)
Knock, knock, can you guess who's there?
It's a shortbread Fred Astaire,
And he's looking for Ginger
Looking for Ginger?
Careful you don't singe her

Don't send me home
(Don't send me home)
I don't wanna be the next to go
Don't send me home
(Don't send me home)
'Cause it means so much to be on this show
We've loved every single second
But now we fear our place is threatened
Don't send me home
(Don't send me home)
Francesca
I'm going home
(Big hug, big hug)
Give her a cuddle, a snuggly wuggle

Hey Phil, I survived another week
You can't get enough of my critique
Maybe I'm on a winning streak
Knock knock
Who's there?
It's me!
I don't care
A contestant's taking Philip on!
Who would ever be so headstrong?
Who knew she loves this long

So... what's the verdict
Oh, Lily. I'm so sorry
Aw
We're here for another week!
Yes, go dad!
And Gemma got star baker two weeks running
Star baker, again?
I don't know how,
It's embarrassing really!
You might just call it, uh... Je ne sais quoi
My dad's not bad
I thought you didn't speak French
He's smiling,
And it's nice to see that he's not so sad
He's got a twinkle in his eye
Right you, out of here
Can I have a bite, Please?
Not 'til later, small child

I'm so glad I came on this show
It's been so amazing
(Here, somewhere in the dough)
And I've started to dip my toe
(This is the kind of)
Into a life I'd like to know

I don't get no peace
when there's flirting in the tent
Yeah, flirting in the tent, man,
When will it relent?
I'm trying to bake,
It's detracting from the show
I think there might be something more
Than sugar in the dough
Gemma's got a new dress,
Who's she trying to impress?
Take a look at Ben, man,
He's looking like a ten
Who knows what happens in the tent at night
This is meant to be bake off,
Not married at first sight

Another week (the weeks go by)
Another challenge (will I score high?)
Another pie (God, I hate pie)
Man, I love pie!

Don't send me home
(Don't send me home)
I don't wanna be the next to go
Don't send me home
(Don't send me home)
'Cause it means so much to be on this show
We've loved every single second
But now we fear our place is threatened
Don't send me home
(Don't send me home)
Don't send me home
(Don't send me home)
Don't send me home
(Don't send me home)
Babs
I'm going home
(Big hug, big hug)
Give her a big hug
Give her a cuddle, a snuggly wuggle

Knock knock
Who's there?
Donut
Donut who?
Donut ask me why I'm so funny,
'Cause it's not my fault
Ha, go on. I'll give you that

I'm going home
Don't send me home
