Happy meals and hot dogs, Burgers and fries
Good ole chicken nuggets, drumsticks and thighs.
Some think that's boring; lamenting how lame
Eat monkey brains for breakfast and you'll never be the same.

Chorus: Eat what's set before you. Be thankful! That's the ticket!
You can eat your vegetables if I can eat a cricket.

Kids in Alaska eat walrus blubber
Kids in Cambodia, dig grubworms for their supper
Rats and bats in China, Lizards and snakes
That broccoli sounds quite yummy; Yes, I'll try some with my steak. SING CHORUS

French snails are yummy; Spaniards eat eels.
Squid sounds kinda squishy; I wonder how it feels?
Nomads cook lamb's tongue and swallow the eye.
Why, yes, I'll think I'll try a piece of sweet potato pie. SING CHORUS

Bridge: You Picky Picky Picky eaters
Your problem's in your head.
If you were really hungry, starving, famished, malnourished
You'd eat what you are fed!

So next time you're at grandma's and green beans are served,
Open up your mouth just like a hungry little bird.
Don't you be stubborn! Just give it a try.
Open up your mouth with courage! Take a bite! SING CHORUS
