The Cuphead - Delicious Last Course soundtrack is comprised of over 110 musicians, performing big band & symphonic music. In Summer of 2021 - in the midst of the COVID pandemic - Studio MDHR brought those musicians together for a series of carefully planned recording sessions.

This is an exclusive look at how some of the game’s music was created. We hope it brings a smile to your face.

This song - and all music in Cuphead - The Delicious Last Course - was recorded following all Government of Canada and Government of Ontario safety protocols, including additional measures taken to ensure performer healthy and safety. These measures included (but were not limited to) daily COVID rapid testing for all on-site personnel (with only those returning negative tests permitted to enter the building), strict capacity limits within all recording facilities, enforced separation between all performing musicians using physical barriers, rigid mask mandates with exceptions only for vocal performers doing their work, and full UV light treatment and sanitization of the recording facilities between sessions. Our immense thanks to Jeremy Darby for figuring out how to record safely and securely with this many performers.

LYRICS:

Cuphead
Mugman and
Chalice make a deal
As a team
Adventuring
To help make Chalice real

It’s the Delicious Last Course
Oh the Delicious Last Course
One can eat their fill
and still stay until
the Delicious Last Course

It’s the Delicious Last Course
Oh that Delicious Last Course
There’s tarts, cakes and pies
a dozen scones ‘oh my!’
for that Delicious Last Course

Oh Ms. Chalice just wants to be
just as real as real can be
With the Wondertart
she can then take heart,
it’s off to the bakery

Chef Saltbaker has a plan
The best tart maker in the land
If they’re expedient
with the ingredients
then he might just lend a hand

With that Delicious Last Course
Oh that Delicious Last Course
If there’s a single meal
To help make Chalice real
It’s the Delicious Last Course

Oh the Delicious Last Course
Oh the Delicious Last Course
Searching à la carte
To bake the Wondertart
For the Delicious Last Course

Using recipes to get
Necessities for the
Delicious Last Course

With a wink and a song as long as
Nothing goes wrong...
With that Delicious Last Course
