My baby likes (buttered popcorn)
Oh, hah (buttered popcorn)
Oh, oh (buttered popcorn)
Oh, hah (buttered popcorn)
He likes it greasy (buttered popcorn)
And sticky (buttered popcorn)
And gooey (buttered popcorn)
And salty (buttered popcorn)
I said, "What do you like?"
He says, "You know what I like...
I like (buttered popcorn)"
He took me to a show
(buttered popcorn)
He said he wanted some more
(buttered popcorn)
I said, "Kiss me please"
(buttered popcorn)
He said, "After I eat"
(buttered popcorn)
I said, "What do you like?"
He says, "You know what I like...
I like (buttered popcorn)"
For breakfast, lunch, and dinner too he eats
(buttered popcorn, buttered popcorn)
And it worries me so
I don't know what to do
(buttered popcorn, buttered popcorn)
And I asked him what was happening
In the world today, he said
"More butter, more butter, more butter, more!"
My baby likes (buttered
popcorn)
Oh, hah (buttered popcorn)
Oh, oh (buttered popcorn)
Oh, yeah, ho! (buttered popcorn)
He likes it
greasy (buttered popcorn)
And sticky (buttered popcorn)
And gooey (buttered popcorn)
And salty (buttered popcorn)
I said, "What do you like?"
He says, "You know what I like...
I like (buttered popcorn)"
For breakfast, lunch, and dinner too he
eats
(buttered popcorn, buttered popcorn)
And it worries me so
I don't know what to do
(buttered popcorn, buttered popcorn)
And I asked him what was happening
In the world today, he said
"More butter, more butter, more butter, more!"
My baby likes (buttered
popcorn)
Oh, hah (buttered popcorn)
Oh, oh (buttered popcorn)
Oh, yeah, ho! (buttered popcorn)
He likes it greasy (buttered
popcorn)
And sticky (buttered popcorn)
And gooey (buttered popcorn)
And salty (buttered popcorn)
I said, "What do you like?"
He says, "You know what I like...
I like (buttered popcorn)"
Oh uh-huh
Pop to pop to pop
Oh don't you know what he needs
To pop to pop to pop
Don't you know what he wants
