| I want your cheeks to be rosey
|
| Your lips like the color of wine
|
| Darling the way that people will say that
|
| «My but you’re looking so fine»
|
| OOOOOOOOh
|
| I want you strong as Apollo
|
| A sturdy and masculine sheek
|
| Darling the way that people will say that
|
| «My What a gorgeous physique»
|
| If you want to be like I want you to be
|
| follow this carefully:
|
| You’ve gotta eat your spinach baby
|
| That’s the proper thing to do
|
| It’ll keep you kind of healthy too
|
| And what it did for Popeye it’ll do for you
|
| You’ve gotta eat your spinach baby
|
| It’ll give you lots of TNT
|
| For whenever you’re caressing me
|
| Cause you’ll need lots of vitamins from A-Z
|
| Please take my advice
|
| Kissing is dangerous doctors all agree
|
| I’ll take your advice
|
| But don’t ever kiss anybody but me
|
| You’ve gotta eat your spinach baby
|
| If you do you can’t go wrong
|
| 'Cause it’s gonna make you nice and strong
|
| And the stronger you are the longer you’ll live
|
| And the longer I’ll have to love you
|
| Pardon me did I hear you say Spinach — Spinach
|
| I represent all the kids of the nation
|
| Who sent me to see you about it
|
| I bring a message from the kids of the nation
|
| To tell you we can do without it
|
| Kindly listen to me
|
| I’m not alone in my plea
|
| There are dozens and dozens and dozens of us
|
| Nephews and nieces and cousins of us
|
| They want me to say — Hallelujah Hallelujah
|
| No Spinach, take away that awful greenery
|
| No Spinach, give us lots of jelly beanery
|
| We positively refuse to budge
|
| We’d like lollipops, we like fudge
|
| But no Spinach Hosanna
|
| You’ve got to eat your Spinach baby
|
| No No No No, I’m singing to you
|
| No No No No Hallelujah
|
| Spinach stay away from my door
|
| We’ll tell the bogey man
|
| The big big bad bad bogey bogey man
|
| Oh that’s just a bluff
|
| You know we don’t believe that stuff
|
| You gotta eat your Spinach baby
|
| Children have to do as they are told
|
| Yes Sir, yes Ma’am
|
| Children shouldn’t be so very bold
|
| Yes Sir, yes Ma’am
|
| Or you’ll grow up to be a meanie when your old
|
| Yes Sir, yes Ma’am
|
| I’ve want to tell all the kids of the nation
|
| Who sent me to see you about it
|
| Children have to do as they are told
|
| Children shouldn’t be so very bold
|
| Or you will be a meanie when you’re old
|
| So okay — Spinach |
