Buttering both sides of your bread!
what sort of things have got in your head!
Not making the most of spreading your toast
double-buttered bread’s a buttery ghost

There’s no need to get hairy over dairy
it’s OK to be sharey as a faerie
when you sprinkle butter over your bread

Butter these days is costly stuff!
One tiny pat is surely enough!
No need to teach green beans to swim
Butter is not a food of whim

There’s no need to get flustered over butter
it’s OK to use it to the point of smothered
when you sprinkle butter over your bread

What have you done to your muffin true
you’re drowning it in a buttery ooze
it’s all over me and all over you
oh what shall we do about the goo?

There’s no need to be stingy or scroogey
every golden bit of butter is juicy
when you sprinkle butter over your bread
