Food Pyramid

[Intro]

The ancient pharaohs weren’t too bright they say

But they made one contribution that I live by to this day

It’s called the Food Pyramid, and it’s approved by the USDA

[Verse]

Whole grains are the foundation, so please take my advice

Have five to eleven servings of bread, cereal or rice

Three to five of vegetables, and four fruits is best

Their antioxidants and fiber help you to digest

Three servings of yoghurt, milk and cheese

It’ll help your bones and subsidize the cattle industry

A body needs to grow, and growing takes proteins

It’s why meat can be a tasty treat, like fish or human beings

When you eat your sweets, make sure you try

To limit your servings, or you’ll die

Everybody

[Chorus]

My body’s a pyramid that’s made of healthy food

So do what we say, eat right everyday

I love you

[Outro]
