It's All About Choice
We wrote a lil rhyme to help you understand.
The healthy life you want is right in your hand.
So sit back and chill, and pay close attention,
Helping you improve your life is our intention.
Choice, choice, it’s all about choice!
When it comes to your health, you do have a voice.
Choice, choice, it’s all about choice,
When it comes to your health, you gotta have a voice
Eat your fruits and veggies at every meal.
To keep your body healthy, improve how you feel.
Apples, bananas, grapes, and cherries,
Melon, kiwi, pears, and STRAW-berries…
Carrots, peas, beans, and tomatoes,
spinach, yams, rice, and baked potatoes.
These are healthy food choices you can make,
there are many more, besides candy and cake.
Sugary foods can give your teeth black holes,
and make it hard to reach your basketball goals.
Fat and greasy foods are bad for your heart;
they make you too heavy—you know that’s not smart!
If you get the munchies, or a snack-attack,
pull a piece of fruit from your school backpack.
When your throat gets dry, to cure your thirst,
say no to pop, drink spring water first.
Push your plate away before your belt gets tight,
take your time Danny boy, enjoy every bite.
Cause it’s, choice, choice, it’s about choice.
When it comes to your health you do have a voice.
Choice, Choice, it’s all about choice!
When it comes to your health you GOTTA have a voice!
Now breakfast is the meal you never wanna skip.
Like filling the gas tank before you take a trip.
Now that you’re eating healthy everyday,
flip your X-box off, leave the house and play.
Do what you love, play your number-one sport,
let’s shoot, pass, and dribble on the b-ball court.
Stick with the plan, and your day will come,
you’ll get picked to play, and have a ton-a-fun.
Choice, choice, it’s about choice!
When it comes to your health you do have a voice.
Choice, choice, it’s all about choice!
When it comes to your health you gotta have a voice!
Don’t get up yet, cause we’re not through;
got another rockin’ rhyme to rap to you.
After losing weight, you can’t get slack,
‘cause the Blubba Hill Gang, will surely come back.
They creep late at night, while you’re snoozing in bed,
Stuff-n-Gut and his boys will try to get–in–your head.
Glazio, Chaka-Chip, Faz-n-greazy,
Wanna tease you, they won’t-make-it-easy.
Don’t let’em tempt you with a bowl of Chunky-Monkey.
And turn you back into a chubby-food flunkie.
The Cardio Kidd, and Fat Fighting Force,
will help you reach your goals, and stay on course.
You can do it Danny, you/got/to/be/lieve!
Take it day-by-day, and/you/will/a/chieve!
Just never make sports more important than school,
‘Cause failing in the classroom is really not cool.
If you’re called mean names, just “smile and wave!”
Don’t let ’em steal your joy, you GOT to be brave!
Think for yourself—why follow the crowd?
You wanna be a leader, make your family proud.
One last point, to p-p-please consider,
There are other young people that need to get fitter.
If they come to you and ask for your advice,
Share what you’ve learned, cause it pays to be nice!
We hope this lil rhyme, helped you understand,
The healthy life you want, is right in your hand.
Your lesson’s over now, things should be clearer,
The only one can stop you is the person in the mirror.
Choice, choice, it’s all about choice,
When it comes to your health, you do have a voice.
Choice, choice, it’s all about choice,
When it comes to your health, you GOTTA have a voice! ©
