I eat tofu, tomatoes, and tangerines
Pasta, potatoes, and pinto beans
Apples and oranges, onions and oats
Garlic and grapefruit, and green beans and groats
I’m takin’ a chance, and doing a little dance
About healthy foods that come from plants
I drink peppermint tea for passing the time
Lettuce and lentils and lemon and lime
Parsley and pineapples, peppers, and peas
Roots from the ground, and fruits from the trees
I’m takin’ a chance, and doing a little dance
About healthy foods that come from plants
I eat basil and beets, and broccoli is nice
Watermelon, wasabi, and wild rice
Cabbage and cauliflower, carrots and kale
Blueberries and strawberries filling my pail
I’m takin’ a chance, and doing a little dance
About healthy foods that come from plants
I eat spinach and salad and soup and seaweed
My whole grain cereals help me succeed
Sauerkraut, snow peas and sunflower seeds
Healthy foods are all that I need
I’m takin’ a chance, and doing a little dance
About healthy foods that come from plants
