Dipped In Batter

Calculate deduct deduce infer
Kiss the pigs until you’re sure
Let’s pretend I matter
Let’s pretend I’m dipped in batter

Equitable distribby
Puttin on the bibby
Let’s pretend I matter
Let’s pretend I’m dipped in batter

Accounting for naught
Without having fought
Let’s pretend I matter
Let’s pretend I’m dipped in batter

Matter I might
Batter-dipped that’s right
But one thing seems true
I’ll wind up in you

Ground-up gristle
Simmer bubble steam
A little oil please
Your culinary dream

Out of the pan
And into your department
Now I’m a bolus
In your compartment

Epigastric me
Satisfied you
Rich old you
Rich and true

Toilet-bound me
Nutty little me
Please flush me
But don’t forget me

Let’s pretend I matter
Let’s pretend I’m dipped in batter
