I'd Rather Have a Salad

[Verse] Can't stand the sight of a cheeseburger in my hand Makes me sick Can't you understand? The greasy meat The gooey cheese It's a nightmare Bring me to my knees I see everyone around me taking a bite But the thought of a cheeseburger just ain't right I'd rather have a salad Something light and green But this cheeseburger obsession It's obscene [Verse 2] Every time I go out It's the same old story Cheeseburgers everywhere It's getting boring I'm sick and tired of hearing "just try a bite" But I've had enough It's time to fight [Verse 3] They say it's un-American, what's wrong with you? But I just can't eat it, it's not what I choose All that grease and fat, it's not my scene Give me a fresh salad, so crisp and clean [guitar solo] [verse] I watch them munching down, with ketchup and fries But I'd rather munch on kale, see the world through clear eyes I'm not trying to be difficult, just want something new So keep your cheeseburgers, I'm staying true [Chorus] Cheeseburgers, no way, not today Give me a salad, let me find my own way I'm not into beef, or the cheddar cheese Just want a salad, baby, bring me some peace [breakdown] [Verse 4] I know they all laugh, say I'm out of place But I'd rather eat greens, without a trace Of that fatty meat, that they hold so dear But I'm standing my ground, year after year [verse] They think I'm weird, say it's just a phase But I've seen the light, in so many ways So I'll stick to my salad, won't give in To the cheeseburger madness, won't let it win [Verse] So here's to the salads, to the life I choose I don't need your burgers, I refuse To follow the herd, in their greasy haze I'll take my veggies, in a thousand ways
