Junk Food Man

Jay Mankita 2006 


Who's makin' money tellin' children lies? 

About happy clowns eatin' burgers and fries 

Puts the fast food in the children's hand 

"Its good for you", says the junk food man. Don't believe the junk food man 


They put 10 or 12 teaspoons of sugar in a can 

That's the junk food company plan 

He puts the can of soda in the childrens' hand 

"Its good for you", says the junk food man. Don't believe the junk food man 


The junk food man is gonna hook you in - He'll play you kid, just like a violin 

And just like drugs or cigarettes, he makes more money the more kids he gets 


The junk food man he gets his pay 

To tell you lies - lead you astray 

Puts the candy in the children's hand 

"Its good for you", says the junk food man. Don't believe the junk food man 

Junk food man, junk food man, he’ll try to get you if he can… 

Junk food man, junk food man, don't believe the junk food man 


You spend your money to pay his due 

But he's got no respect for you 

Puts the fake food in the childrens' hand 

"Its good for you", says the junk food man. Don't believe the junk food man 


The junk food man is gonna hook you in - He'll play you kid, just like a violin 

And just like drugs or cigarettes - He makes more money - the more kids he gets 


Who's makin' money tellin' children lies? 

About happy clowns eatin' burgers and fries 

Puts the children in the company's hand 

(Its good for you) says the junk food man - don't believe the junk food man 


Hey, you want this toy? It's the real McCoy 

You'll just have to eat more junk food, boy 

Got your playground here – and your action gear 

Watch your money disappear 

More shakes and pies, more burgers and fries 

Eat that junk food, swallow those lies
