Po-ta-to
You can bake em
You can fry em
Po-ta-to
You can boil em
You can mash em
Po-ta-to

And though I’ll still eat my cauliflower
Indulge in peas and corn
I see them only as decorative
When focusing on the main course
Now that I’ve committed to
My first culinary love
So while waiting for them to cook
Reach into the ground
Give me more of those spuds!!!

Po-ta-to
You can slice em
You can dice em
Po-ta-to
You can hash em
You can chip em
Po-ta-to

Now I don’t ever care
If I eat another thing
Just a steak
From time to time
Maybe a little gravy on the side
To go along with
Help me write and sing about
Dreaming of those
Covered in those

Po-ta-to
You can bake em
You can fry em
Po-ta-to
You can boil em
You can mash em
Po-ta-to
You can skin em
You can dip em
Po-ta-to
You can make em into salad
Po-ta-to
You can buy em in a can!
Po-ta-to
You can even eat em raw!!!

Po-ta-to
