Hey food, don't let me down
Take a weak man and make him stronger
Remember to let it fully digest
So it's absorbed and cures my hunger

Hey carbs, you are my fuel
Compounds made of C, H, and O
The minute that monosaccharides bond
I get the starch in my potato
And every time I swallow you, hey food, go through
My large and small intestines anew
Don't you know the pancreas is sweet because
It secretes enzymes which will dissolve you
Hey fats, don't saturate
Keep some kinks in your hydrocarbon tail
You lipids pwn carbs in energy storage
But mixing with water: an epic fail
Hey proteins, you help me grow
You make signals, fibers, and enzymes
A chain of amino acids in line
Folding yourself in cool designs
So break it down and take it in, hey food, begin
To undergo cell respiration
For well you know that it's glucose I need to turn
Into an ATP creation
Hey food, don't let me down
Please be eaten and then digested
Remember to turn to ATP
In your success, my life is invested
