You've Gotta Eat Your Spinach, Baby |
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 |
