I have posted the original of this song before, but I’ll do it again for reference 😊.
I was driving home from a doctor visit when I was listening to the song “Add It Up” by the Violent Femmes and I kept hearing him say “hangry” instead of “angry”....
Without further ado.. I bring you... “Ate It Up” by moi.
(I posted the original song here for reference.. that ... of course is by the Violent Femmes)
Day after day, I will find food to sate.
But the day after today, I will stop and I will start.
Why can't I get just one bite?
Why can't I get just one bite?
There may be some things that I wouldn't like,
But I look at your plate and I need a bite.
Why can't I get just one chew?
Why can't I get just one chew?
Believe me, I know what to do
But something won't let me eat all that stew.
Why can't I get some ground chuck?
Why can't I get some ground chuck?
I guess it's got something to do with luck,
But I waited my whole life for just some.
Day after day, I get hangry and I will say
That the day my tummy’s tight, when I'll take a bite and say goodnight.
Oh, y-y-y-yummy yummy yum
Have you kept your eye, your eye on your bun?
I know you have hogies, you're not the only one.
Where’d you put the sugar? You fed it to my son!
Oh, y-y-y-yummy yummy yum
Take a look now cause your cake is done.
I’m walking around to have me some
Went downtown and you left me none!
So don’t leave me without any treats.
Don't leave me without any treats.
My hunger isn’t for you to mistreat.
So don’t leave me without any treats.
So don’t leave me without any treats.
Don't leave me without any treats.
My hunger isn’t for you to mistreat.
So don’t leave me without any treats.
Going down the kitchen at the top of the stairs
Can I mix in some juicy pears?
Share some jam, make a ham, grasp and reach for a leg of lamb.
Foods metabolize, and I like pies.
Pies make me need exercise.
Lucky Charms have the magic prize;
And all that pie goes straight to my thighs.
Oh, y-y-yummy y-yum yum tummy
I would love to have some nummies.
Tummy is restless, I’m ready to eat!
Here in the kitchen, now gimme a treat!
Oh, y-y-yummy y-yum yum tummy
I would love to have some nummies.
Tummy is restless, I’m ready to eat!
Here in the kitchen, now gimme a treat!
I've given you some food to make
Things to do, things to bake.
Just as I’m about ready to cut it up:
I say, "Wait a minute, honey, you went and ate it up!"
Ate it up! Ate it up! Ate it up!
Day after day, I get hangry and I will say
That the day my tummy’s tight, when I'll take a bite and say goodnight.
