Wake up everybody, get up!

Munch! Munch!

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

Crunch!

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?

No matter!
