Yummy yumm yum
In my tummy, tum, tum
Chip butty with grated cheese melted on top
All gooey and stringy, soft and sticky my chip butty
Yummy, yum,yum*
Dipping sauces or put no top
My chip butty can have curry sauce,
but not too hot to give it a kick on top
Dripping, squelching† through my fingers
My chip butty needs tomato sauce and mayo mixed together, Dip, dip, dip
Drip, drip, drip, through my fingertips
My Chip Butty,
Yummy, yum, yum in my tummy, tum, tum
*In the printed version of this poem, there is no space between the comma and "yum", I'm assuming this was deliberate by Anne Thompson of Mickleover, in an attempt to convey her desire, nay, her NEED for her chip butty. She can barely control herself and cannot pause for thought between outbursts of "yum"
†Yeah, she went there.
