lyrics

VERSE 1

Artificial sweeteners

It’s official, it’ll do you worse

Than all the sugar

You could ever eat

Neither do good

But one’s made naturally



No I don’t need no aspartame

And I don’t believe in poisoning

In the name of making diet drinks

In this day and age, doesn’t anybody stop to think



‘Bout what they’re putting in their body

Or is it just all about your wallet

Got news for all the real food haters

You could pay the farmer now, or pay the doctor later



CHORUS

I don’t want no more chemicals inside of me

So I sweeten things naturally

No I don’t need no aspartame, thank you anyway



Said I don’t want no more toxic crap inside of me

So I stay away from diet drinks

Cuz they’re all full of aspartame, it’s a crooked shame



VERSE 2

Aspartame, are you insane

Have you heard what it could do to your brain

FDA said it’s OK, didn’t read the 10,000 complaints

91 different symptoms stated

Means how it hits ya is complicated

All different, can’t anticipate it

Tell ya what, I really hate it



Now these neurotoxins, what they all about?

Your nervous system, now it’s freaking out

Saying “what the hell Rob, what in the world is this here?

You wanna keep us well? You gotta eat what’s real!”



CHORUS 2

(same as above)



BRIDGE

Start reading the ingredients on all that’s sugar free

Might be surprised, wide eyed at a weird word you see

Some folks pronounce it as-part-‘a-me

But I don’t want that crap as any part of me



CHORUS 3

…

You can stick that nonsense up your aspartame
