Gingerbread City
A very warm welcome to Gingerbread City
We’re iced and we’re spiced and we’re ever so pretty
We’ve gingerbread houses and gingerbread shops
Gingerbread buses at gingerbread stops
Rainbows of candy and rivers of sweets
Bedeck and bedazzle our gingerbread streets
Come to the salon to spice up your hair
Ride on the wheel at the gingerbread fair
Deposit your dough in the gingerbread bank
Forget architects, we’ve got bakers to thank
For a city so pretty, on sweetness it’s powered
Wonderful, whimsical, dainty ... devoured.
We’re iced and we’re spiced and we’re ever so pretty
We’ve gingerbread houses and gingerbread shops
Gingerbread buses at gingerbread stops
Rainbows of candy and rivers of sweets
Bedeck and bedazzle our gingerbread streets
Come to the salon to spice up your hair
Ride on the wheel at the gingerbread fair
Deposit your dough in the gingerbread bank
Forget architects, we’ve got bakers to thank
For a city so pretty, on sweetness it’s powered
Wonderful, whimsical, dainty ... devoured.
