[Verse 1]
You’re lumpy and bumpy
Little dirt on your crown
All the other veggies
Turn their noses and frown
You’re rolling off the counter
Into my open hand
I hold you up and whisper
“You don’t need to understand”
[Chorus]
Ugly potato
You’re my favorite thing on the plate though
Funny little face
Crooked halo
Everybody points
But they don’t know
Ugly potato
You’re a masterpiece in a plain coat
Golden on the inside
I say so
Stay just how you are
My ugly potato (oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
Bag full of perfect
But I grabbed you instead
Little scar on your shoulder
Like a story never said
They hide you in the back row
Under plastic and glare
I see a tiny hero
In a brown
Wrinkled stare
[Chorus]
Ugly potato
You’re my favorite thing on the plate though
Funny little face
Crooked halo
Everybody points
But they don’t know
Ugly potato
You’re a masterpiece in a plain coat
Golden on the inside
I say so
Stay just how you are
My ugly potato (hey!)
[Bridge]
One day they’ll line up
For the odd ones in the bowl
They’ll finally catch up
To what I already know
Beauty on a billboard
Fades like a show
But you keep getting softer
The longer that you’re close
[Chorus]
Ugly potato
You’re my favorite thing on the plate though
Funny little face
Crooked halo
Everybody laughs
But they don’t know
Ugly potato
You’re a love song in a plain coat
Golden on the inside
I say so
Stay just how you are
My ugly potato
You’re lumpy and bumpy
Little dirt on your crown
All the other veggies
Turn their noses and frown
You’re rolling off the counter
Into my open hand
I hold you up and whisper
“You don’t need to understand”
[Chorus]
Ugly potato
You’re my favorite thing on the plate though
Funny little face
Crooked halo
Everybody points
But they don’t know
Ugly potato
You’re a masterpiece in a plain coat
Golden on the inside
I say so
Stay just how you are
My ugly potato (oh-oh)
[Verse 2]
Bag full of perfect
But I grabbed you instead
Little scar on your shoulder
Like a story never said
They hide you in the back row
Under plastic and glare

Ugly potato
You’re my favorite thing on the plate though
Funny little face

Stijl van muziek
pop, Bouncy bubblegum pop with quirky synth plucks, bright acoustic guitar, and a four-on-the-floor kick. Playful, tongue-in-cheek tone; verses stay light and talky, chorus blossoms with stacked gang vocals and claps. Brief middle break drops to bass and snaps before final big-hook outro. Female vocals full of character and wink-at-the-camera charm.
