"Frosting the Cake" (also known as the "Cake Frosting Song") is a Barney song that first appeared in "Happy Birthday, Barney!". It uses the same tune as "Peanut Butter".

Lyrics

First you take the frosting

And you spread it, you spread it.

First you take the frosting

And you spread it, you spread it.

For the birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!

Birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!

Then you take the colored icing

And you squeeze it, you squeeze it.

Then you take the colored icing

And you squeeze it, you squeeze it.

For the birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!

Birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!

Then you take the sprinkles

And you shake 'em, you shake 'em.

Then you take the sprinkles

And you shake 'em, you shake 'em.

For the birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!

Birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!

Then you take the candles

And you stick em, you stick em.

Then you take the candles

And you stick em, you stick em.

For the birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!

Birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!

First you take the frosting

And you spread it, you spread it;

Then you take the colored icing

And you squeeze it, you squeeze it;

Then you take the sprinkles

And you shake 'em, you shake 'em;

Then you take the candles

And you stick em, you stick em.

For the birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!

Birthday cake for Barney,

For Barney!
