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
- Lisa:
- Willie, I hope I'm not being too personal, but you seem resigned to a life of abject squalor.
- Groundskeeper Willie:
- Ma fam'ly's used to it. Me granfather used to get sent down into th' mines to make sure it was safe fer th' canaries.
- Lisa:
- Don't you ever hope for anything better?
- 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.
