Adequate is a song sung mainly by Groundskeeper Willie when Lisa was trying to turn him into a gentleman from a slob and trying to teach him manners.

Lyrics

Bart (speaking):
Maybe you could aim a little higher.
Groundskeeper Willie (speaking):
Well, let's see.

(singing)

Oh, to have me shack rebilt,
Git my rotten teeth all drilt,
Sumthing on underneath me kilt.
Oh, wouldn't it be adequate?
Matching shoes for both me feet,
Dining on untainted meat,
A toilet wot still has its seat.
Homer:
Oh, wouldn't it be adequate?
Lisa and Bart:
Adequate, adequate.
Groundskeeper Willie:
Oh, wouldn't it be adequate? I do want ta better me lot. To live like a normal—
Bart (interrupting song):
Heeeeey, that's great, good night.

Behind the Laughter
