Your body is a factory

Feed your factory every day

Eat the things it needs to make Vitamin A

 

There's a lot of things going on in you

It's amazing what your body can do

You can make the winning shot, or make a double play

You can even make some Vitamin A

 

Vitamin A, your body makes

When you feed your factory what it takes

Eat fruits and veggies with carotenes

Think yellow, orange, red and deep green

Feed your factory every day

Your body is a factory

Eat the things it needs to make Vitamin A

Now carotenes are real big news

They give fruits and veggies colorful hues

Eat yellow, orange, red and deep green

'Cause they're rich and loaded if you know what I mean

 

But even better is what they do

When the carotenes get inside of you

They don't sit around, they don't go to waste

Your body converts 'em into Vitamin A!

Feed your factory every day

Your body is a factory

Eat the things it needs to make Vitamin A

Beautiful hair that shines bright in the daylight

Healthy eyes so you can see at night
