Eat Your Fucking Dinner!
I made a long list
Of delicious, healthy treats,
Hoping that at least,
One of them you will eat.
I went to the grocery store
And picked up some red grapes,
A few carrots and green apples,
And a Rotisserie chicken to taste.
But when I got back
and offered you some,
You said, "I won't eat that!
I don't like any of them!”
So what did I do?
I sighed in defeat.
Then I opened up the snack cupboard,
And gave you sugary treats.
Pop-tarts, pancakes, crackers, and bacon
Potato chips, candy and nugget shaped chicken.
French toast sticks with maple syrup, and Macaroni & Cheese,
Juicy steak with French fries, but please, hold the peas!
While all of these foods sure are mighty tasty,
I suggest that you take heed,
Because they do not, and never will,
Give you all the nutrition you need.
We poured the syrup on your pancakes
Before you cut them up,
You hid in your coat and cried and cried,
While we sat there completely stumped.
“But this pancake has a hole in it!
I won't eat it like that!”
… And it takes everything inside of me,
Not to call you a spoiled fucking brat!
You look like a crack addict,
And you're only getting thinner.
So quit all of your complaining,
And eat your fucking dinner!
Tonight I cooked some salmon for supper,
Spent the whole day in the kitchen,
I chopped, peeled, sauteed and sliced,
Only to hear your bitchin'.
When I set the plate in front of you,
You turned up your nose at the rice!
You made a face, hid in your shirt,
And turned into stone cold ice.
You cried over the corn,
And at the sight of the pink fish,
But what did I expect?
All I can do is wish …
You look like you have bulimia,
And you're only getting thinner,
So quit all your complaining
And eat your fucking dinner!
It's becoming very difficult,
To keep making different foods.
I have to cook two meals a night
And I'm so sick of your attitude!
You throw a fit everyday
Because you don't get your way,
Well, it won't work for much longer, Mister!
And it will not work today!
We're so tired of this shit,
And it needs to end now!
So pick up that fork next to your plate,
And eat that fucking cow!
I really don't care
If it got a little black!
I don't want to hear it anymore,
AND THAT IS THAT!
You're hungry all the time,
But you won't eat what we give you.
We try to find something you'll eat,
But you won't eat anything new!
You look like an Ethiopian,
And you're only getting thinner,
So quit all your complaining,
And eat your fucking dinner!
There are kids around the world
That are starving and underfed,
They don't have the food we have here,
And so many of them end up dead.
So instead of crying and hiding
And throwing a complete and utter fit,
Be grateful you have food to eat,
AND GET THE FUCK OVER IT.
No more sugar for breakfast!
It's time you eat some fruit!
Stop hiding over the broccoli!
It's good for you to toot!
You look at new food,
And you run away from the sight.
We just don't understand,
Why you're so afraid to take a bite?
You are so unhealthy,
And you're only getting thinner.
So please stop complaining,
AND EAT YOUR FUCKING DINNER!
