How’d you like your spuds ? , lass,
I say, How’d you like your spuds
Boiled or Mashed ? Baked or fried
with spices and vinegar liberally applied ?
Perhaps you’ll like them roasted
with herbs or chilli scattered
served alongside a lovely fish
thats been breaded or perhaps battered
Maybe you’ll eat em in a salad
diced with mayonnaisse
and served up with cucumber on lettuce
in a number of different ways
Some tatas have a taste all of their own
and served up they’re really posh
bringing some elegance to your dinner plate
a higher level of nosh
but as you won’t find a red russet
in your fish shop as you wish
you’ll enjoy a plate of premium whites
crisped up for the fish
