Ode to the Microwave Potato I Ate Last Night with Lentils

I will come for you at nighttime
I will raise you from the fridge
I will pierce you in four places
As I go short of things to eat
I will fork the life out of you
You will make me full and make me satisfied
And I will never forget it
You will make me buy more potatoes
And I'll get them from the IGA tomorrow
But I may never eat again
So shed your skin and let's get started
And you will grow like starch inside me
Yeah, you will grow like starch inside me
I dreamed of you at nighttime
And I saw you in the fridge
I met you in the crisper
I touched your top and touched your toe
So when you disappear inside me
You know I will surely belch
And though I try to forget it
You will make me buy more potatoes
And I'll get them from the IGA tomorrow...
And I may never eat again...
So shed your skin and let's get started
And you will grow like starch inside me
Yeah, you will grow like starch inside me
Oh ... yeah...
Etc.
