Well, me known for eating cookie,
When me don't, they shout,
"Look, he trying to throw loyal fans a curve!
What he doing eating fish,
Or vegetable dish?
Man, he sure got a lot of nerve!"
Well, me answer you straight,
When me filling up plate,
Taking only cookies is all wrong!
'Cause you also got to eat
Fruit or veggies and meat
If you want to be healthy and strong!
Word up! ( not in this translation, but CM does say this on the video )
(Chorus)
Healthy food!
Boy, it taste so good
Me one healthy dude
'Cause me eat healthy food
Me love it boiled or stewed,
Me love it whole or chewed
You'd feel just great if you'd
Eat some healthy food!
Me promise that when you eat varied menu,
You get more out of every meal
You need balanced diet,
Come on and try it!
Not believe how great you'll feel!
Munch some carrots or beans
Or poultry or greens,
Along with your chocolate chip
And banana or plum
Will make you go, "Yum!"
Nutrition--- it really hip!
( repeat chorus )
There broiled spring chicken,
Grapes ripe for picking,
And swordfish, tuna and trout
And apple and cherry,
And all kinds of berry,
And broccoli and Brussel sprout!
There lettuce, tomato,
Boiled new potato,
There spinach and celery and beet
Milk and honey and cheese,
Peanuts, peppers, and peas,
Pears and peaches and cream of wheat!
( repeat chorus twice )
