Don’t fill up on chips.
Why, Ma? Why, Ma?
‘Cause if you fill up on chips
you won’t eat your dinner.
So read my lips:

Don’t fill up on chips.
Why, Ma? Why, Ma?
Salsa and guacamole, they ain’t dinner.
They’re just dips.
Don’t fill up on chips.

There’s tacos on the way.
And they’re not free. We gotta pay.
Or chimichangas or quesadillas.
So don’t fill up on chips
and just take a few sips
of your soda. (ha ha ha) ¿Por qué te rías?
I’m laughing for fun, Ma.
It won’t hurt anyone, Ma.
I think that those chips make you loco!
It’s because chips are salty
that I sip, Ma. It’s not my fault, see?
I think you’re just cuckoo. Maybe un poco!

Don’t fill up on chips.
Why, Ma? Why, Ma?
‘Cause if you fill up on chips—
You sound like a record, Ma, one that skips!
Don’t fill up on chi- Don’t fill up on chi-
Don’t fill up on chi- Don't fill up on chips!

Don’t do it, I say!
Push that basket away.
And wait for your smothered burrito.
Smothered with what, Ma?
Cheese! Yeah, uh, but, Ma,
I’m allergic and cheese I can’t eat. Oh.
Darn. I forgot.
Here’s the food. Plate’s are hot.
Uh, we’ll have to take it home - para llevar.
Can you wrap it for me?
With chips. No! But they’re free!
Señorita, your kid is bizarre.

Don’t fill up on chips.
Why, Ma? Why, Ma?
‘Cause if you fill up on chips
you won’t eat your dinner.
So read my lips:

Don’t fill up on chips.
Why, Ma? Why, Ma?
Guacamole and salsa verde,
they ain’t dinner. They’re just dips.
Don’t fill up on chips.

Why, Ma?
