The Lyrics

psst...it's pronounced "KEEN-wah".
They try to make me eat the quinoa, I say no, no, no
Texture like sand, it’s tasteless and bland so no, no, no
I don’t mean to whine, I’ll eat the veggies, yes that’s fine
Don’t try to make me eat the quinoa, I’ll say no, no, no.

I get it from USDA
I can’t give this stuff away
‘Cause despite the superfood it’s hyped as
I’d rather eat a freakin’ pile of hay
Guess they think that I’m a goof
To prefer my protein on the hoof

They try to make me eat the quinoa, I say no, no, no
Texture like sand, it’s tasteless and bland so no, no, no
If you’d like me kind, serve me a steak at dinnertime
Don’t try to make me eat the quinoa, I’ll say no, no, no.

How can I use my stockpile here?
Maybe I could brew some beer
I have a sneaky strange suspicion
That my brew would taste a little weird
You say to cook it with some broth
This me: yeah baby, feel my wroth

They try to make me eat the quinoa, I say no, no, no
Texture like sand, it’s tasteless and bland so no, no, no

Don’t want to hear it’s so good for me
That just makes me want KFC
It’s not just that it’s ‘health food’
It sticks in the cracks between my teeth
Could I win first prize
If I served this stuff deep fried?

They try to make me eat the quinoa, I say no, no, no
Texture like sand, it’s tasteless and bland so no, no, no
I don’t mean to whine, I’ll have a meal some other time
Don’t try to make me eat the quinoa, I’ll say no, no, no.

It is very high in protein, sir ! I serve as a pasta salad: very tastey, indeed. PS: I pronounce it Kee-No-Ah, rhymes with Noah !
