Lloyd Cole - Eat Your Greens lyrics

for you to break the habits of a lifetime

babe, get on your pony and ride

make no mistake, we're gonna cry at your funeral

t-bone steak, french fries

for heaven's sake, your belly's bigger than your eyes

all you could eat for a dollar and a dream

and the drinks are on the house at the funeral parlor

if you don't know what's good for you boy

eat your fried greens and pray

nobody loves you more than we do

sha la la la la la hey

(wake up, time to fly)

sugar kiss, sugar kicks like a mule

ain't that the truth, and you're a strawberry fool

look at your hips, look at the cream in your coffee

you could whip it, or we could cry at your funeral

if you don't know what's good for you boy

eat your fried greens and pray

nobody loves you more than we do

sha la la la la la hey

well if you don't know what's good for you boy

eat your fried greens and pray

nobody loves you more than we do

sha la la la la la hey hey hey

well if you don't know what's good for you boy

eat your fried greens and pray

nobody loves you more than we do

sha la la la la la hey

if you don't know what's good for you boy

eat your fried greens and pray

nobody loves you more than we do

sha la la la la la hey

if you don't know

if you don't know

what's good

if you don't know
