Lyrics[edit]

I like to eat, eat, eat,
Apples and bananas;
I like to eat, eat, eat,
Apples and bananas.

I like to ate, ate, ate,
Ape-puls and ba-nay-nays;
I like to ate, ate, ate,
Ape-puls and ba-nay-nays.

I like to eat, eat, eat,
Ee-puls and bee-nee-nees;
I like to eat, eat, eat,
Ee-puls and bee-nee-nees.

I like to ite, ite, ite,
I-puls and bi-ni-nis;
I like to ite, ite, ite,
I-puls and bi-ni-nis.

I like to ote, ote, ote,
O-puls and bo-no-nos;
I like to ote, ote, ote,
O-puls and bo-no-nos.

I like to oot, oot, oot,
Oo-puls and boo-noo-noos;
I like to oot, oot, oot,
Oo-puls and boo-noo-noos.

(First verse is repeated)
