What’ll ya do if it come for you?
Eatin’ sugar, carbs and all that goo,
See it a comin’ way down th’ road,
And ya body can’t take that load.
A bad d’zease soon make ya cry,
Or ‘nother maybe getcha leg’r eye,
So, if too soon ya don’t wanna die,
Do coffee, green tea ‘n veggy pie!
Get you some squash ‘n lotsa beans,
Broccoli, cabbage, ‘n collard greens
Vinear ‘n ginger on ya spinach ‘n kale,
Onions ‘n garlic, hearty ‘n hale.
Berries on ya salad, ‘n red grapes,
Best stuff f’r us greatest of apes,
Tomatoes, walnuts ‘n cherries too,
Sprinkle on D3 ‘n flaxseed,
a few – oo – oo – oo.
Ya get th’ picture, don’t ya now
Eatin’ fruits and veggies is how,
If ya move ya body, rain ‘r sun,
Ya be real good f’r th’ long run.
What’ll ya do if it come for you?
Eatin’ sugar, carbs ‘n all that goo,
See it a comin’ way down th’ road
’Ya body ain’t gonna take that load.
Knowin’ -- ya body can’t take that load!
Sugar—oo – oo – oo !

and so is fruit.
But I like beans,
for their toot.

In spite of the serious tone above, your poem had me chuckling.
