[Verse 1]
    Am7
Not everyone in New York would pay to see Andrew Lloyd Webber
        Am7
May his trousers fall down as he bows to the queen and the crown
        F
I don't know what tune that the orchestra played
            D                G5
But it went by me sickly and sentimental
 
 
[Chorus]
Am7                                    D
 Can I have another piece of chocolate cake?
                     Gsus2
Tammy Bakker's got a lot on her plate
Am7                              D
 Can I buy another cheap Picasso fake?
                    Gsus2
Andy Warhol must be laughing in his grave
 
 
[Interlude]

 (Ba-da-da-lei-la ...)
 
 
 
[Verse 2]
    Am7
The band of the night take you to ethereal heights over dinner
        Am7
And you wander the streets never reaching the heights that you seek
        F
And the sugar that dripped from the violins' bow
         D                        G5
Made the children go crazy, put a hole in the tooth of a hag
 
 
[Chorus]
Am7                                    D
 Can I have another piece of chocolate cake?
                     Gsus2
Tammy Bakker's got a lot on her plate
Am7                              D
 Can I buy another cheap Picasso fake?
                    Gsus2
Andy Warhol must be laughing in his grave
 
 
 [Bridge]
        A7                              D
And the dogs are on the road, we're all tempting fate
A7                       D
Cars shooting by with no number plates
    E
And here comes Mrs Hairy Legs
 (break)

[Verse 3]
  Am7
I saw Elvis Presley walk out of a Seven Eleven
      Am7
And a woman gave birth to a baby and then bowled 257
    F
The excess of fat on your American bones
     D                         G5
Will cushion the impact as you sink like a stone
 
 
[Chorus]
Am7                                    D
 Can I have another piece of chocolate cake?
                     Gsus2
Tammy Bakker's got a lot on her plate
Am7                              D
 Can I buy another cheap Picasso fake?
              Gsus2
Cheap Picasso, cheap Picasso fake
 
 
[Chorus]
Am7                                    D
 Can I have another piece of chocolate cake?
                          Gsus2
Kathy Straker, boy, could she lose some weight
Am7                                D
 Can I buy another slice of real estate?
                 Gsus2                  [ Am11 ]
Liberace must be laughing in his gra-a-a-ave
                                       (break)

Am     G             Am          G           | Am G | Am G6 |
 Can I have another ... piece of chocolate cake?
Am     G             Am          G           | Am G | Am G6 |
 Can I have another ... piece of chocolate cake?
Am     G             Am          G           | Am G | Am G6 |
 Can I have another ... piece of chocolate cake?
