Story Behind The Song

One day I stopped using canned, frozen,packaged foods: that is, took all the chemicals out of my food & got so much energy I didn't know what to do with myself. This song came out of that experience. out of that experience.

Lyrics

You're a BASIC BABY,
Honey, you suffice.
You satisfy my basic needs,
You're my beans and rice.

You're a strapping baby
With a tender feel,
So drop those eggs and nitrate slices;

You're an earthy baby,
You got veggie power:
Carrot, kale and broccoli;
You're my cauliflower.

Now we're going the whole way, baby,
Oo and won't it be keen?
No more shopping in the world meat market,
Got our yang and yin.

You're a steaming baby
Honey, here's the scoop:
You heat me up to calm me down,
You're my chickpea soup.

You're a tasty baby,
Sweet as barley malt,
You season life, you spice it up,
You're my sea salt.

You're a BASIC BABY,
Honey, you suffice:
You satisfy my basic needs,
You're my beans and rice.
Honey, you're basic to me.
Be my oatmeal.
