Eat Junk
JME Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look after your body…(yes)
u only get ONE body.
Without that body, you're NOBODY…
EVERYBODY listen to me.
Look after your body.
It seems like nobody cares
How their body will be in five years
Okay now blowing smoke in the air
But cancer doesn't have an antidote so.
Stop takin life for a joke (no joke)
I've had it up to HERE
Kids smoking in their pre-school years
Cuz of the pressure they get from their peers
Some of the kids have the nerve
To stop me and ask do I get served
Imma teach dem a lesson.
Next kid to ask me to get served
Imma take his 2 quid
[chorus]
Everybody please listen to me and look after your body
if not, u might end up a dead body.
Cuz all u wanna do is
Eat junk
Smoke skunk
Get drunk
All u wanna do is.
Eat junk
Smoke skunk
Get drunk
All u ever do is.
Eat junk
Smoke skunk
Get drunk
All u wanna do is.
Eat junk
Smoke skunk
Get drunk
Listen up.
All the guys that think they can live off dem greasy fries
They ent potatoes, das LIES!
Take away and junk food's bad for you heart
I don't care if you're skinny from the start
Them fries will leave you SUPERSIZED
Junk food looks good to the eyes
But it don't look good on the thighs
if your tummy's in a funny mood,
Go home and have some mummy's food
That way you know what you're eatin
Unless mum works in burger king
[chorus]
Everybody please listen to me and look after your body
if not, u might end up a dead body.
Cuz all u wanna do is
Eat junk
Smoke skunk
Get drunk
All u wanna do is.
Eat junk
Smoke skunk
Get drunk
All u ever do is.
Eat junk
Smoke skunk
Get drunk
All u wanna do is.
Eat junk

Listen up.
All the people that are out there drinkin BUBBLY
When really they're supposed to be
Buyin bread and pampers
Instead they're buyin CHAMPERS
Waving drunk and disorderly
And two years down the line
Their liver's not workin properly
Drinkin gives you confidence
It's not a co-incidence
Your prospects don't look promising
cuz can't stop yourself from vomitin
[chorus]
Everybody please listen to me and look after your body
if not, u might end up a dead body.
Cuz all u wanna do is
Eat junk
Smoke skunk
Get drunk
All u wann do is.

Achin joints.

Stomach aches.

Overall Meaning

In JME's song Eat Junk, the artist speaks to listeners about the importance of taking care of their bodies. He begins by emphasizing the idea that one's body is all they have and without it, they are nobody. He then goes on to discuss how people are not mindful of how their body will be in the next five years. JME then shifts to addressing the trend of smoking among children, a habit that starts as early as preschool, due to peer pressure. He uses the line "I've had it up to here" to express his frustration with this trend. He also touches on the prevalence of junk food consumption, something that is becoming more and more common with time. He highlights the negative effects that junk food and takeaways have on one's health, specifically on the heart and weight gain. The artist states that junk food may look good to the eyes but doesn't look good on the thighs. JME also mentions the culture of drinking champagne, which is often taken at the expense of important life essentials such as bread and pampers. The song concludes with a call to action to take care of one's body, and not to ignore the less visible consequences associated with unhealthy habits.
