Maximum Consumption

Lyrics

I'll have some clam chowder, followed by beef steak on rye
 Pumpkin pie, whipped cream and coffee
 I wanna green salad on the side
 Don't forget the french fries
 Pizza pie, garlic and anchovie
 I keep burning up calories as fast as I keep putting them down
 ♪
 Eat food, put it in my mouth
 Chew it up, swallow it down
 ♪
 I'll have two eggs, over light, home made apple pie
 Cole slaw as a side order
 I gotta stay fit, stay alive,
 eat food to sustain a non-stop high-grade performer
 The pace is continual, sure keeps running me down
 ♪
 Don't you know that you gotta eat food
 Don't you know that you gotta refuel
 ♪
 I'm a Maximum Consumption, super-grade performer
 High powered machine
 Go steady on my clutch, go easy on the hills
 And you'll get a lot of mileage out of me
 I'm so easy to drive, and I'm an excellent ride
 ♪
 Excessive living sure keeps running me down
 
 You've got to learn to use the Maximum Juice
 That's how you get the maximum use
 ♪
 Life keeps using me, keeps on abusing me, mentally and physically
 I gotta stay fit, stay alive, need fuel inside, eat food to survive
 Maximum Consumption sure keeps running me down
 ♪
 Don't you know that you gotta eat food
 Don't you know that it's good for you
 ♪
 I'm a Maximum Consumption
 Non-stop machine
 Total automation perpetual motion
