Ode to the Belly Button

By Sandwich Massacre •
I look down at my tummy and see a hole
Maybe it’s for a marble, or just a little bowl
If I stick my finger in it, I can dig for gold
Maybe out will jump a little mole
So hey, I hear they gave it a name!
It’s just a little hole but they don’t see it the same
So hey, I wanna go to Maine
And they call it a belly button, yeah, a belly button
They call it a belly button, baby
So I put my finger in it
And give it a push
I push it like a button
And my skin went smoosh
Waited for something to happen
Maybe a light would go on
Or maybe I’d start dancing
Or sound like a farm
But nothing happened
Stupid belly button
It needs to be rewired
Then when I push it, something will go on fire!
FIRE FIRE FIRE FIRE!
I look down at my tummy and see a depression
I can’t hook it to some wires, and put it in suspension
If I gained a lot of weight it would succumb to expansion
If I weighed 1000 pounds it would be like a mansion!
So hey, I hear they gave it a name!
The type of name that caused some pain
So hey, who wants to go to Maine?
In Maine… In Maine… They call it a
BELLY BUTTON! Wooo yeah, a belly button
Let’s go to Boston and eat a Fajita!
