[Verse 1]
Some time ago, I had a cholesterol mind
Nearly making me blind
Everywhere I'd look, I would find
Fat in the way of seeing a thing
I had to slim my mind, only I didn't quite know how
A seed was planted in my mind so it could grow
But how could it grow?
Oh yes, I had to have an open mind
To let in the sunlight
Do you see what I mean?
And then I started to realize
That for me to play the keyboards with ease
I need black as well as white keys
I may want to be black
But I can't turn my back
On my father or my mother
Even though you are my brother
See I'm not the cold kind of farmer
Pulling on his boots
Stomping on his roots
But natural respect is in order
That is respect for nature's way
Why think that way?
[Chorus]
Stay mentally slim
Avoid cholesterol mind
Mental aerobics will help pull up the blind, see
(repeat)
[Verse 2]
When a parent gives a kid something to drink
But doesn't think about the fizz
There it is, the effects of cholesterol mind
And them you just might find
Sticks and stones
May break his bones
But words can surely kill him
Work that brain and cold pump a little harder
No steroids needed as a starter
Why? 'Cause the brain has brawn
So we try to use that instead
To get the brain fat going out of my way, out of sight
See, staying mentally slim is quite hard
But as long as you get the picture: cholesterol mind!
[Chorus]
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
I asked some guy what he thought about this book
He said: I don't know what I think until I have said it
Cholesterol mind, need to stay mentally slim
This diet has been approved by each and every doctor in
Philosophy, psychology, sociology
But do you get the picture:
Cholestrol mind
