How come you're always such a fussy young man
Don't want no Captain Crunch, don't want no Raisin Bran
Well, don't you know that other kids are starving in Japan

So eat it, just eat it

Don't want to argue, I don't want to debate

Don't want to hear about what kind of food you hate
You won't get no dessert 'till you clean off your plate
So eat it


Don't you tell me you're full
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it

Get yourself an egg and beat it
Have some more chicken, have some more pie
It doesn't matter if it's boiled or fried

Just eat it, eat it, just eat it, eat it
Just eat it, eat it, just eat it, eat it, ooh


Your table manners are some cryin' shame
You're playin' with your food, this ain't some kind of game
Now, if you starve to death, you'll just have yourself to blame

So eat it, just eat it

You better listen, better do what you're told

You haven't even touched your tuna casserole
You better chow down or it's gonna get cold
So eat it


I don't care if you're full
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it

Open up your mouth and feed it
Have some more yogurt, have some more spam
It doesn't matter if it's fresh or canned

Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Don't you make me repeat it
Have a banana, have a whole bunch

It doesn't matter what you had for lunch
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it


Eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
If it's gettin' cold, reheat it

Have a big dinner, have a light snack
If you don't like it, you can't send it back
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it

Get yourself an egg and beat it (oh lord)
Have some more chicken, have some more pie
It doesn't matter if it's boiled or fried

Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
Don't you make me repeat it (oh no)
Have a banana, have a whole bunch

It doesn't matter what you had for lunch
Just eat it, eat it, eat it, eat it
