Oh Frankenfood
Lyrics by Geo. McCalip © 2013 BMI
To the tune of O Tannenbaum

Oh Frankenfood, oh Frankenfood,
What the hell is on our table?
Oh Frankenfood, oh Frankenfood,
All we're asking for's a label.

CHORUS:
A simple label's all we need
To end Monsanto's deadly greed.
Oh Frankenfood, oh Frankenfood,
All we're asking for's a label.

O Frankenmilk, oh Frankenmilk,
With hormones in my glass now.
O Frankenmilk, oh Frankenmilk,
What did they do to that cow?

CHORUS

Oh Frankenfood, oh Frankenfood,
I found another dead bee.
Oh Frankenfood, oh Frankenfood,
Where will we get our honey?

CHORUS

Oh Frankenfish, oh Frankenfish,
You're not for Kosher lox. Ick!
Oh Frankenfish, oh Frankenfish,
We suspect you are toxic.

CHORUS

Oh Frankenfood, oh Frankenfood,
With your genetic medley;
Oh Frankenfood, oh Frankenfood,
You know you may be deadly.

CHORUS

Oh Frankenfood, oh Frankenfood
All we're asking for's a label
Oh Frankenfood, oh Frankenfood
What the hell is on our table?
