If we Americans Keep Eating

If we Americans keep eating like we do
We are going to end up like the second graders I saw today
Who are too tired to run,
Many got frustrated and sat down
Refusing to race one more time
They have no trouble reaching for salt and sugar
And pepperoni pizza, though
right lady liberty?
