"Chocolate Cake" is a 1991 song by Australian rock group Crowded House from their 1991 album Woodface.

History and description

The song was not originally intended as the lead single, as it was more intended for "It's Only Natural" to be the lead track. However, despite this, "Chocolate Cake" was released as the album's lead single. Despite performing marginally better than the singles from Temple of Low Men in the United States, the song was thought to offend due to its lyrics and the song gained only moderate performance in the US, as it referred to Americans having an "excess of fat on your American bones".[1] The song reached number two on the US Modern Rock Tracks chart, while also peaking at number 20 on the Australian ARIA Singles Chart, number 62 on the Danish chart{{cn|date=April 2018}}, and number 69 on the UK Singles Chart.

The B-sides featured are "As Sure as I Am", a song from Woodface, and "Anyone Can Tell", which was intended for release on the album however was not released due to the amalgamation of the Woodface project with the Finn Brothers project. The song later appeared on the rarities collection Afterglow and was released as its lead promotional single.
