Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Chop the nuts
Pound the dough
Bake it up
Nice and slow
Then you got a Toledo
Toledo Surprise
[Verse 2]
Now sell it
Pit the peach
Peel the skin
Mush it up
Throw it in
That's a tasty Toledo
Toledo Surprise
[Verse 3]
First you beat it up
Then you sweet it up
When you heat it up
If it tries to rise
Don't let it
It's a snap
Try it folks
Whip your whites
Split your yokes
Then you got a splendedo
Toledo Surprise
[Verse 4]
You boys are naturals, keep it up
5 6 7 8
Mr. Feldzieg, ooh what's going on here?
Kitty, I'm developing a new act
Toledo Surprise
[Verse 5]
You're putting gangsters in the show and you won't put me in it?
They're not even in the Union!
[Verse 6]
You got it all wrong, the new act, it's for you, Kitty
And these boys are your backup dancers
Back up dancers? Holy cats!
[Verse 7]
What the hot toledo
Does to my libido
Good? Yes indeedo
Sugary yum yum
Surprise!
[Verse 8]
Squeeze the cream
Grease the pan
Lick the spoon
Flip the flan
Makes you bust your tuxedo
Toledo Surprise

Sweet mother of pearl
Underling
Yes, madam
What is all this commotion about?
[Verse 19]
The wedding, madam
[Verse 20]
Wedding? Oh I love weddings
[Verse 21]
I'm afraid it's been called off
[Verse 22]
Oh, how terrible
[Verse 23]
Yes, what a tragedy, what a wonderful, wonderful tragedy
Clear the floor boys, I'll show you how it's done
[Verse 24]
First you beat it up
Then you sweet it up
When you heat it up
If it tries to rise
Don't let it
