lyrics

Colonel Kernel

I said, “Tell me, Colonel Kernel,
why whole grains are the best.”
“They’re a gift from Mother Nature
for you and all the rest
with all the nutrients you need
to fuel your body.
Pass the cornbread, please.”

I said, “Tell me, Colonel Kernel,
why whole grains are the best.”
“They’re a gift from Mother Nature —
don’t put her to the test!
White bread, rice and pasta and rolls —
have less of these.
Try them made with whole grains.
Pass the tabbouleh, please!”

I said, “Tell me, Colonel Kernel,
why whole grains are the best.”
“They’re a gift from Mother Nature —
the natural scientist:
When you mix grains with
nuts and seeds and beans,
they form a protein.
Pass the hummus, please!”

I said, “Thank you, Colonel Kernel,
to you I must confess:
I didn’t think I’d like them,
but now they’re just the best.
I like peanut butter, whole wheat bread
and raisins, if you please!
Thank you, Mother Nature,
for making all of these!”

I said, “Thank you, Colonel Kernel,
to you I must confess:
I didn’t think I’d like them,
but now they’re just the best.
I even tried polenta with
tomato sauce and cheese!
Thank you, Mother Nature,
for making all of these!
