Lyrics

Verse 1:
How many of my peeps like to eat?
And, after that, like to lay down and go to sleep?
And I ain't even talking about eating a whole meal.
Just snacking and napping is how I keep it real.
Don't care if it's Hostess. Don't care if it's little Debbie.
All I want to do is just put it in my belly.
Honey buns, hot dogs, french fries, funnel cakes,
corn chips, doughnuts, eat 'em til my tummy aches.
I don't need to get full...let me nibble.
Eyelids getting heavy, let me lay down a little.
I don't need my blanket. I don't need my PJs.
I just need a place to lay down because I'm sleepy.
It's happening. Ain't no need to try to fight this.
The Boondocks told us all about the "itis."
Sauce smeared on my shirt, crumbs in my lap.
Don't worry, I'ma cleaning up right after my nap.
(Hook):
(On the bed...I'm sleep! On the couch...I'm sleep!
Eyes closed with drool coming out my mouth...I'm sleep!
Out the box...I'm eatin! Out the bag...I'm eatin!
If it's salty or sweet I gotta have...I'm eatin!
I gotta snack and nap and snack and nap!
I like my snacks and naps and snacks and naps!
I want a snack and nap and snack and nap!
I love my snacks and naps and snacks and naps)!


Verse 2:
As soon as I wake up my stomach grumbling.
I take my sleepy self to the kitchen still stumbling.
I gotta keep the big man happy.
After a snacky, I go from hungry to nappy.
In the kitchen I got popcorn, Pop tarts, and Cheez it's.
In the bedroom is Serta or Sealy Posture-pedic.
You say I snack too much...I say you crazy.
I'm tryna protect us both by keeping me from getting hangry.
After a good snacking, I ain't good for nothin.
I once fell asleep eatin a muffin, I ain't bluffin.
My cereal don't even need milk.
Bedroom and kitchen best rooms ever built.
Nom-Nom is my favorite activity.
Falling asleep afterward, I am blessed with that ability.
And I know I'm not the only one that believes
A good snack sesh should be followed by triple Z's.
(Hook 2X)
