Sesame Street - Healthy Food [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

Well, me known for eating cookie
When me don't, they shout
"Look, he trying to throw loyal fans a curve!
What he doing eating fish
Or vegetable dish?
Man, he sure got a lot of nerve!"
Well, me answer you straight
When me filling up plate
Taking only cookies is all wrong!
Cause you also got to eat
Fruit or veggies and meat
If you want to be healthy and strong!
Word up! ( not in this translation, but CM does say this on the video )

(Chorus)
Healthy food!
Boy, it taste so good
Me one healthy dude
Cause me eat healthy food
Me love it boiled or stewed
Me love it whole or chewed
You'd feel just great if you'd
Eat some healthy food!
Me promise that when you eat varied menu
You get more out of every meal
You need balanced diet
Come on and try it!
Not believe how great you'll feel!
Munch some carrots or beans
Or poultry or greens
Along with your chocolate chip
And banana or plum
Will make you go, "Yum!"
Nutrition--- it really hip!

( repeat chorus )
There broiled spring chicken
Grapes ripe for picking
And swordfish, tuna and trout
And apple and cherry
And all kinds of berry
And broccoli and Brussel sprout!
There lettuce, tomato
Boiled new potato
There spinach and celery and beet
Milk and honey and cheese
Peanuts, peppers, and peas
Pears and peaches and cream of wheat!

( repeat chorus twice )
