I'm here to do some splaining
Bout the latest sensation
To grab hold the giblets
And rock the nation
It's been round for years
In case you didn't know
The sweetest of treats
The sweet potato
You've heard them tell
You can't judge a book by its cover
The outside is ugly as hell
With innerds like no other
So open one up
Scoop out its guts
You can bake em, fry em, pie em
Even pancake em up
Seems there's nothing that
This sweetness can't do
So line them up boys
For some sweet tater stew
Really didn't mean
To go off on a rampant
Of the sweet potatoes
Overtake of the planet
But you must admit
It's the best of both worlds
It's sweet and it's potato
Who could ask for anything more
