  • (Once Upon a time, I was a noisy eater)

    I'm hungry, I want something to eat
    Something with a crunch and very sweet
    Just woke up so you know the scenario
    I'm craving cereal like Cheerios
    May be forced to drink, I might munch
    But what popped in my mind is Captain Crunch
    So I went to the kitchen to freak my choice
    In my stomach I heard a voice
    It said "please feed me, my tank is on empty
    I'm seeing things, so please don't tempt me"
    So I said okay, and got my bowl
    Got my milk and cereal, made sure it was cold
    Sat down at the table and said my grace
    Because I knew what was about to take place
    "Yum yum, eat 'em up", my belly said
    The crunches so loud errbody jumped out they bed!

    Here come old flat-top, he come grooving up slowly
    He got ju-ju eyeballs, he's one holy roller
    He's got
    (Did you ever know a noisy eater?)

    Well it's lunchtime, and I'm hungry again
    I don't know where I should begin
    Maybe I'll get some super salmon, mmm that's good
    I don't want no chicken, it tastes like wood
    But I have to have some chips, ones that crunch
    So you can hear me go 'munch, munch, munch'
    Some old lady tapped me on the shoulder out of a crowd
    And said quiet down Biz, you munching too loud!

    Here come old flat-top, he come grooving up slowly
    He got ju-ju eyeballs. He's one holy roller
    He's got
    (Well excuse me, um, um, well excuse me, um
    Well excuse me, um, um, well excuse me)

    Here come old flat-top, he come grooving up slowly
    He got ju-ju eyeballs. He's one holy roller
    He's got

    Quiet down Biz, you munching too loud!
    Yum, yum, yum, yum yum

    (Mmm, that's good!
    They all thought I had stopped
    And where's the gravy?)
