Don't give me that broccoli Uh-oh-oh Don't give me that broccoli Yes, I know I've never tried it But it doesn't look right I want no broccoli tonight Now listen, Nice Lady I don't wanna be unfair And I know you try to do your best I appreciate the fact that you really do care But I have a most important request Please, listen Can you listen? Won't you listen to me? I'd rather you never give me Broccoli Please, don't, don't give me any broccoli Don't give me that broccoli Uh-oh-oh Don't give me that broccoli You tell me it can't hurt me to take one little bite But I'm taking no chances tonight You always try to tell me that it's good for me If I wanns grow up big and strong But how can I eat something that looks like a tree? That can't be right It has got to be wrong Oh, don't give me that Oh, don't give me that Oh, don't give me that B-R-O-C-C-O-L-I (E-I-E-I-E-I) You know I'm not the only one that feels this way The popularity of broccoli is low When people come to dinner If it's Broccoli Day, they say "Thank you, but we really must go" You can hear in down in Texas "Darling, I'm goving back the broccoli you gave me" You can hear it in Québec "Ne me donnez pas ces brocolis-là" You can hear it off in Italy too "Oh, Broccoli miei, non vi amo" Yeah, and even Cow Planet, if you're very high tech "No broccoli" You can listen to me tell it to you Don't, don't give me that broccoli! (Uh-oh-oh) Don't, don't give me that broccoli! (Please!) Don't, don't give me that broccoli! Oh, please (Oh, please) Not ever (Not ever) No never (No never) Never, never ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever Okay, I'm gonna try it But it isn't on my diet An I know I'm going to hate it Uh-oh I ate it Yum
