Lyrics

[Verse 1] If food is the staff of life Should there be famine, wars and strifes? For like the ant should man proceed To fulfill his want and need [Chorus] And that is food! And without it you're in a devastating mood Oh yes that's food You better treat it like you know you should And that is food And without it you're in a malnutritious mood Oh yes that's food You better treat it like you know you should You better give it just as much as you could [Verse 2] If bread is for man to eat Why should he die from lack of meat? For in the multitude of wine and laughter He's suffering from hunger [Chorus] From want for food And without it you're in a devastating mood Oh yes that's food You better treat it like you know you should And that is food And without it you're in a malnutritious mood Oh yes that's food You better treat it like you know you should You better give it just as much as you could [Bridge] Now, if food is the staff of life Should there be famine, wars and strifes? For like the ant should man proceed To fulfill his want and need [Verse 3] Now don't forget the Ethiopians Their afflictions should the world take a lesson from For if today is for them then tomorrow is for us For in arms do we put our trust [Chorus] Instead of food And without it you're in a devastating mood Oh yes that's food You better treat it like you know you should And that is food And without it you're in a malnutritious mood Oh yes that's food You better treat it like you know you should [Outro] And that is food And without it you're in a devastating mood Oh yes that's food You better treat it like you know you should And that is food And without it you're in a malnutritious mood Oh yes that's food You better treat it like you know you should
