My grandmother came from Russia, A satchel on her knee; My grandfather had his father's cap He brought from Italy. They'd heard about a country Where life might let them win, They paid the fare to America And there they melted in.
Lovely Lady Liberty, With her book of recipes, And the finest one she's got Is the great American meltin' pot. The great American meltin' pot.
>> >> >> Our heritage is mixed.> >>
You simply melt right in, It doesn't matter what your skin. It doesn't matter where you're from, Or your religion, You jump right in To the great American meltin' pot. Great American meltin' pot
Ooh what a stew, Red white and blue.
America was the new world, And Europe was the old. America was the land of hope, Or so the legend told. On steamboats by the millions, In search of honest pay, Those 19th-century immigrants sailed To reach the U.S.A.
Lovely Lady Liberty With her book of recipes And the finest one she's got Is the great American melting pot. The great Anerican melting pot.
What good ingredients: Liberty and immigrants.
They brought their countries' customs, Their language and their ways. They filled the factories, Tilled the soil, Helped build the U.S.A.
Go on and ask your Grandma, Hear what she has to tell, How great to be an American And something else as well.
Lovely Lady Liberty With her book of recipes And the finest one she's got Is the great American meltin' pot. The great American meltin' pot. The great American meltin' pot. The great American meltin' pot. The great American meltin' pot. The great American meltin' pot. The great American meltin' pot...
BODY MACHINE Music & Lyrics: Lynn Ahrens Sung by: Bob Dorough and Jack Sheldon Animation: Phil Kimmelman and Associates
When you look down the street What do you see? The street is overflowin' with a lot of machines. Now, I don't mean the buses, the trucks or cars I'm talkin' 'bout the people Yeah, you know who they are.
I'm a machine, you're a machine Everybody that you know, you know they are machines To keep your engine running, you need energy For your high-powered, revved-up body machine. Your high-powered, revved-up body machine.
Now I'd be a fool If I said that the fuel That we needed to burn was gasoline. 'Cause the fuel we use is the stuff called food And it puts out the power for our machine.
You make a stop at the filling station As you start to chew, your body does it All systems go!
for your body. The chicken gives you protein. Bread: carbohydrate. Mayonnaise: fat. And the lettuce has vitamins, plus cellulose or roughage. Together, these things help keep your body machine running smoothly.>
First the saliva, kind of like a driver But what it's doin' Along with teeth that's chewin' Is taking food and breaking it down.
Down to the stomach the food is pushed The esophagus does its stuff (gulp, gulp!) And the stomach starts... As the body machine churns up.
Gastric juices operate On proteins, fats and carbohydrates In the stomach they do what they do To take out nutrition and use it for you.
Well the cellulose in those things you know Will control the traffic flow Helps the food to move along So the good stays in and the bad gets gone.
I'm a machine, you're a machine Everybody that you know, you know they are machines To keep your engine running, you need energy For your high-powered, revved-up body machine. Your high-powered, revved-up body machine.
Then the small intestine Does most of your digestin' By sending all of the nutrients In through the villi But act as little vents.
The bloodstream passes The nutrients it catches And takes them to the cells you see You use what it delivers For future energy.
I'm a machine, you're a machine Everybody that you know, you know they are machines To keep your engine running, you need energy For your high-powered, revved-up body machine. Your high-powered, revved-up body machine.
Your high-powered, revved-up, complicated tuned-up Fascinatin' body machine.
