Food Pyramid

The ancient pharaohs were not too bright, they say
But they made one contribution that I live by too this day
It's the food pyramid and it's approved by the USDA

Oh, grains are the foundation, so please take my advice
Add five to eleven servings of bread, cereal or rice
Three to five of vegetables and four of fruits is best
Their anti-oxidants and fibre help you to digest
These servings of yoghurt, milk and cheese
Will help your bones and subsidise the cattle industries

A body needs to grow and growing takes proteins
That's why meat can be a tasty treat like fish or human beings
And when you eat your sweets make sure you try
To limit your servings or you'll die

Everybody, my body is a pyramid
That's made of healthy food
So do what we say, yeah, eat right everyday
I love you
