Food For Thought |
| Hey, tobacco man |
| Tell me if you can |
| How much money would you make off that cigarette |
| If your only son should partake |
| And then proceed to get |
| T.B. |
| or Cancer, I got to know the answer |
| Industrial tycoon |
| You must see pretty soon |
| If you don’t stop pouring that poison waste |
| Down into the water |
| There might not be any left to taste |
| Think of your thirsty daughter |
| You’d sure sound funny |
| Saying, «come on, honey |
| Let’s try to drink this money» |
| Well, I’m not trying to tell you what to do |
| But he who spins the web sometimes gets caught |
| I’m not trying to fill you full of bull |
| I’m just feeding you some food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| A little food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| (Food for thought) |
| Yes I am |
| (Food for thought) |
| Hey, man on the run |
| Out there having fun |
| Trying to gander all the gooses |
| Stallion all the mares |
| At home, she’s immune to all your excuses |
| For not being there |
| Now maybe she’s got |
| Somebody there when you’re not |
| Well, I’m not trying to tell you what to do |
| But he who spins the web sometimes gets caught |
| I’m not trying to fill you full of bull |
| I’m just feeding you some food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| A little food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| You better listen, people |
| (Food for thought) |
| A little food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| Trying to tell you |
| (I'm just feeding you some food for thought) |
| Trying to tell you |
| (Food for thought) |
| Well, mother who’s a wife |
| Don’t misuse your life |
| Makin', takin' care of babies |
| All you ever do |
| You’ve got to fill daddy’s needs |
| 'Cause he’s your baby too |
| Your attention slipping |
| Will make daddy start tipping |
| Out, that is |
| Well, I’m not trying to tell you what to do |
| But he who spins the web sometimes gets caught |
| Oh, I’m not trying to fill you full of bull |
| I’m just feeding you some food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| A little food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| You better listen, people |
| (Food for thought) |
| A little food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| Trying to tell you |
| (I'm just feeding you some food for thought) |
| Trying to tell you |
| Listen, people |
| (Food for thought) |
| Food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| Listen, people |
| (I'm just feeding you some food for thought) |
| Trying to tell you |
| Food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| Oh-oh, food for thought |
| (Food for thought) |
| Listen, people |
| (I'm just feeding you some food for thought) |
| Trying to tell you |
| Trying to tell you |
| Trying to tell you |
| A little food for thought… |
