Now
Leanne had quite an appetite
She really loved to eat
Chocolate biscuits, sticky cakes
And every sort of treat
But one food made her feel so crook
one food
Leanne did hate.
She went green and would not
eat the veggies on her plate.
So
she'd stuff them under chicken bones,
hide them under fat, slip them in her pockets.
Lots of kids do that.
Bury them in the pot plant,
drop them in her drink, mush them in
the gravy, or push them down the sink

Now
Leanne, she said that cauliflower
tastes like dirty socks
She wouldn't eat zucchinis for
a dozen chocolate blocks
So
Leanne had to keep trying,
she had to persevere
And keep on finding new ways to
make veggies disappear
Well she'd feed them to the bunny rabbit,
stick them to the cat
Squash them in the dog food
and underneath the mat
Suck them up the vacuum cleaner,
flush them down the loo
Secretly conceal them
underneath her shoe

Now
Leanne just hated broccoli,
she wouldn't eat her peas
She said that eating
Brussels sprouts was worse
than a disease
The very side of spinach
was enough to make her chuck
So secretly she kept inventing
ways to hide the muck
Well, she'd open up the windows
and toss them on the lawn
Flick them underneath the fridge
till everyone was gone
Stick some up her nostrils,
pop a couple in her ears
Slip a few behind the lounge,
they won't be found for years

Well, came the fateful,
dreadful day,
Leanne was down and out.
All her veggie vanishing
tricks had all run out.
There was no escaping to the
north or to the south.
She had to put her veggies right
inside her mouth.
But, when she actually
tasted them, she said,
Why this discreet?
Her family were shocked to
see the veggies that she ate
And she searched out all the veggies
that she'd ever chucked away
They were all dried up and crusty,
but she ate them anyway
