Lyrics
Vegi-matic
(c) 2006 Caroline Figiel & Danny Jones
I like to ride my bike, jump rope and play
It takes a lot of energy to be that way
Candy, cakes, and cookies won't do the trick
I need broccoli, peas and carrot sticks
(Chorus)
If we slice and dice-give it some spice
Shake and bake-that's all it takes
To do the vegi-matic
(Slice it up, dice it up, throw it all in)
vegi-matic
(We're eatin lots of veggies and everybody wins)
When I'm at school playin basketball
Sometimes I wish that I was 10 feet tall
Mom says to run and jump like the big kids do
I need lots of squash and green beans too
(Chorus)
If we slice and dice-give it some spice
Shake and bake-that's all it takes
To do the vegi-matic
(Slice it up, dice it up, throw it all in)
vegi-matic
(We're eatin lots of veggies and everybody wins)
