I'm not the biggest cake fan or honestly follow them faithfully.. But I'm never disappointed when I come across their music and can never get enough of the song.
@MrBrentMetzger I saw them yesterday in Edinburgh. One of those things I thought I'd never get a chance to see being over here in Scotland, but so glad they finally came over to play for us. Cake always have and always will rock my world :)
I love how everyone below thinks this band isnt recognized for how good they are. Cake has been around for a very long time, starting in my hometown (Sacramento, CA) and almost everyone knows atleast one song from cake, and more people in their mid 20s to 30s know atleast 2 or 3. Cake chooses not to be a 'Fad'; because like most really famous artists, they come out with a bang and then dissapear just as fast...who wants that? These guys are doing it right!!!
Cake Lyrics Listen to music like Cake live near San Jose "Mustache Man (Wasted)" Launching loony thoughts into the bending of your mind You reach for something high but it's a mountain that you find He's a king dust demon with an icepick smile His music fills your feathers as you feel your passions fly With the mustache man on the carpet of his van You can feel your fatty tissues giving way to sweaty hands And the woofers keep distorting and the tweeters kiss the girls His horn-rimmed glasses lights a square beneath his curls I have wasted so much time I have wasted so much time He is like a politician who is practicing a speech He is racing, he is pacing, he is sleeping on his beat As the sky begins to darken and the waves begin to roll You can feel the oceans rising as you're losing all control And meanwhile back at the Candlerock Lounge It is past 11:30 and your friends are getting down They're applying purple eyeshadow, drinking warm beer They're wondering where you went to when you told them you'd be here I have wasted so much time I have wasted so much time I have wasted so much time I have wasted so much time
@MrVasir i agree. im 16 and im a huge huge fan of cake, frank sinatra is my favorite song. in a way though these are a little under appreciated for the simple fact that they choose to be so indy. they don't even have a publisher anymore for god's sake xD
@Glockenspiel2012 their live shows could stand some sprucing up though! LOL they seem to give back just a little less than what the crowd gives but at least they're solid live performers.
Who's gonna lay just below your nose tonight? Baby, it's the mustache man. Who's gonna let you twirl their ends up with wax? Baby, it's the mustache man. CAKE ROCKS!
@Redrobottyler everybody keeps watching his video to show their dislikes, my opinion is if you dont like an artist don't watch his video and comment to let everybody know you .
Me and my best friend, her dad, her mom, and her sister danced and sang to this song while doing dishes XD Would have made a funny music video! I've waaaaasstteeeeeddd so much ti-i-ime! we're odd people....
This should be my effin anthem. Pretty much I've wasted at least 5, maybe 7 years of my life just boozing and whoring over the last 10. Anyway, Cake is the shit. Good album - I need it.
Just discovered this band... THERE BLOODY BRILLIANT!!!
This song always gets stuck in my head because I always end up doing random shit when I'm supposed to be doing something productive
That bass groove gives me chills... I wanna play like that :D
I'm not the biggest cake fan or honestly follow them faithfully.. But I'm never disappointed when I come across their music and can never get enough of the song.
i hate how a band this good, is not recognized for how amazing they are!
UNDERRATED
This whole album is underrated imo
46,000 ppl currently, THIS SONG NEEDS MORE VIEWS, I HEARD THIS IN BURGER KING, BLEW MY MIND
This jam just bangs you into funkiness!
Did anyone notice the guy screaming in the background towards the end saying "this is bullshit! In trying to sleep!"
I noticed. I always wonder if it was deliberate or not. Anyone have any idea?
when is that
@@ManoloGal
@@linkss390 Starts at like 3:20 he's saying "You've got to keep it down in here" and then just goes on.
Favorite part of the song has to be the talking near the end. Something about "I AM TRYING TO SLEEP" entertains me every time.
I heard this on the radio at 4:30 in the morning today and I've been listening to it ever since
The way it is to easily get addicted to their music...... it is just pure magic
More pitch and volume from their lead singer than I think I've EVER heard from him. They're rocking this one out (Cake style).
Spotify please 🙏🙌
This is some funky music, man. Makes me want to dance.
LOVE this song! Love this band!!!
"its been a long time" since ive loved cake but now i cant get enough of it
I heard this song on the radio and loved it it. go local radio!

cake almost makes me want to change the way i live
Cake Lyrics
Listen to music like Cake
live near San Jose
"Mustache Man (Wasted)"
Launching loony thoughts into the bending of your mind
You reach for something high but it's a mountain that you find
He's a king dust demon with an icepick smile
His music fills your feathers as you feel your passions fly
With the mustache man on the carpet of his van
You can feel your fatty tissues giving way to sweaty hands
And the woofers keep distorting and the tweeters kiss the girls
His horn-rimmed glasses lights a square beneath his curls
I have wasted so much time
I have wasted so much time
He is like a politician who is practicing a speech
He is racing, he is pacing, he is sleeping on his beat
As the sky begins to darken and the waves begin to roll
You can feel the oceans rising as you're losing all control
And meanwhile back at the Candlerock Lounge
It is past 11:30 and your friends are getting down
They're applying purple eyeshadow, drinking warm beer
They're wondering where you went to when you told them you'd be here
I have wasted so much time
I have wasted so much time
I have wasted so much time
I have wasted so much time
This song never gets old. It's complimentary to being fucked up on weed and booze. A good time guaranteed.
favourite song on the album!
American Dad season 9 episode 16 brought me here :)
Sekoynia Azikiwe , Same!
Same!
no one cares dude....
These guys are among the best in my,personal opinion.. so creative... SO nerdy, yet SOOO,DAM FUNKY...Nerd-funk.. oxymoron
Gian Distefano I disagree good sir. Is not an oxy moron. On the contrary, nerds are funk. They are the master funks.
as the skies begin to darken, and the waves begin to roll...
My friend in the UK just sent me this ? New band new song 👏 thanks Matt L this is a brilliant song
Will be ringing in the New Year with them tonight in Atlanta @ The FOX
@MrVasir i agree. im 16 and im a huge huge fan of cake, frank sinatra is my favorite song. in a way though these are a little under appreciated for the simple fact that they choose to be so indy. they don't even have a publisher anymore for god's sake xD
I thought this was “Life in the Fast Lane” when I heard it on American dad for years but it never sounded quite the same! I feel so complete now
Chuck Bartowsky....XD
Great band, great show, perfect theme song

This song made me fall in love with Cake immediately

@Glockenspiel2012 their live shows could stand some sprucing up though! LOL they seem to give back just a little less than what the crowd gives but at least they're solid live performers.
@ 0:00 - 0:24 sounds like a badass beat

Look at all these vintage comments
Who's gonna lay just below your nose tonight? Baby, it's the mustache man.
Who's gonna let you twirl their ends up with wax? Baby, it's the mustache man.
CAKE ROCKS!
If yall think this singer sounds like like Lennon, yall should listen to Elephant by Tame Impala

@FlammyMcFlammington I did the same thing. lol Instantly fell in love with this too.
Cake is KING

Me: Do you listen to cake?
Friends: No, I eat cake
AMERICAN DAD AVERY GOGGLE SOCIAL CIRCLE LOL DOES ANYBODY STILL USE THAT?
i think i want a life like that one
good tunes
@Redrobottyler everybody keeps watching his video to show their dislikes, my opinion is if you dont like an artist don't watch his video and comment to let everybody know you .
Drink Haley drink.
sexy to chill stoned to
@heirunapparent Don't have much music at all then, do you?
I cant stop thinking about Stan and the Inner Circle ,
More Cowbell!!!!
cool
If you're listening to this without watching the music video you're losing out on half the fun.
“The woofers get distorted and the tweeters kiss the girls”.. Okay Nice
reminds me of one headlight
@Greyfox198 Doesn't that comment belong on EVERY Cake song?
I think i could make it in the biz as a Cake back-up singer........ "HEY HEY HEY AAAAAAAHUUUUU AAAAAHHHHHUUUUUUU HEY HEY HEY"
i like the song
@chadfacedbear sick of you???
Bad ass
1 person has wasted so much time.
Seein them Friday 7/24/15

Me and my best friend, her dad, her mom, and her sister danced and sang to this song while doing dishes XD Would have made a funny music video!
I've waaaaasstteeeeeddd so much ti-i-ime!
we're odd people....
For once the cake is not a lie!
i eat this kind of cake with my ears
This is that one cake song that perplexes me....what do the lyrics mean?
The lead singer said it was about his biggest fear as a child, whatever that means here.
I'm going to see them at Stubbs.
Score.
You're GONE!
