Have a Snack! is an original Barney song that first appeared in Who's Who on the Choo Choo?

LyricsEdit

Have a snack. Eat an apple or an orange.

Have a snack. Munch a cherry or a grape.

Have a snack. Have some celery or carrots.

Have a snack. Yeah! Brocolli is great.

When you want something crunchy, when you want something sweet,

Fruits and vegetables are always fun to eat.

Have a snack. Eat a pear or tangerine.

Yeah, have a snack. A purple plum or juicy peach.

Have a snack. I like to peel a big banana.

Have a snack. Yeah! I'll have one of each.

When you want something crunchy, when you want something sweet,

Fruits and vegetables are always fun to eat.

Have a snack, have a snack.

When you want something crunchy, when you want something sweet,

Fruits and vegetables are always fun to eat.

The song was originally titled "Snack Attack," but was changed at the request of Lyrick Studios, according to songwriters Stephen Bates Baltes and Lory Lazarus.
In addition, many healthy food names were thrown around for lyric ideas (nectarines, apricots, tomatoes, and even cucumbers were thrown around as ideas). Line concepts such as "I like broccoli alot" (to rhyme with apricot) and "Won't you give me some" (rhyming with plum) came out of this as well. However, the final song has most of the lyrics of the first draft (with the exception of the song's title).
