you may say that buttering bread up is your way
you may say it on just about any given day
but I myself am not such as you
and refuse to butter as you do
I will butter my bread from beneath
by moving my knife to and fro
this is the dictum of my wise chief
and he reall really aught to know
because he's been buttering bread like that
ever since Babe Ruth first went to bat
and do you think that such a man
really accepts the upside butter plan?
it's lunacy to believe in such hysteria
he puts the butter in its proper area
not like you at all, if he did that I'd be mad
I hope I never fall, and behave like you cads
if I were like you I would be terribly sad
for I would be buttering in a way that is bad
you do not know that buttering the top side of bread
is a way to make it soggy and get crumbs in your bed
but butter side down is the way to true bliss
all the butter is pulled down and nothing's amiss
it makes perfect sense if you have physics propensity
the butter is more dense and the bread has less density
I'll explain it so it can even be understood by an oaf
a stick of butter weighs more than a slice from a loaf
so why should the slice go ontop of the stick
unless you mean to switch them very quick
and put the stick under the slice where it wants to be
and we can all share properly buttered bread and be free
if you only saw the error of your ways
you'd fire jeeves and hire my butler dave
for dave is smart and clearly knows knows
where the devil it is that the butter goes
