Lyrics

Oh, a little wishbone
I'll make a wish for a potato
Oh, a little wishbone
I'll make a wish for a potato
I'll make a wish
For a potato
Pickin' out the fishbones
In my perch from Lake Champlain
Pickin' out the fishbones
In my perch from Lake Champlain
All them perch
And all them bones
Well, cookin' up tortillas is so much fun
When you got a bowl of beans
Well, cookin' up tortillas is so much fun
When you got a bowl of beans
It's so much fun
With all them beans
Well, popping up the popcorn ain't my fault
But I forgot the salt
Well, popping up the popcorn ain't my fault
But I forgot the salt
It ain't my fault
I forgot the salt
Oh, when we make spaghetti, everybody gathers 'round
And we eat it by the pound
Oh, when we make spaghetti, everybody gathers 'round
And we eat it by the pound
We all gather 'round
Eat it by the pound
Oh, I see six-pack and I want one
And would you kindly bring it over it?
Oh, I see six-pack and I want one
Would you bring it over it?
I said that I want one
Bring it over here
Oh, we fill up our guts, and we turn it into shit
And we get rid of it
Oh, we fill up our guts, and we turn it into shit
And we get rid of it
Turn it into shit
We get rid of it
Oh, the dirty dishes over there
How they fill me with despair
Oh, the dirty dishes over there
How they fill me with despair
The dishes over there
Fill me with despair
Stuffin' our faces
On a regular basis
