Song Lyrics
Verse 1:
My stomach's in the middle of me,
It's busy, busy, as you can see!
When I eat my food with a happy sound,
My stomach's where it all goes down!
Chorus:
Chomp, chomp, munch, munch!
That's how my stomach works at lunch!
My stomach helps the food all go,
So all my body can grow, grow, grow!
Verse 2:
My stomach holds the food inside,
It’s like a little, private tide.
It keeps the food safe and sound,
Until it's ready for the next round!
Chorus:
Chomp, chomp, munch, munch!
That's how my stomach works at lunch!
My stomach helps the food all go,
So all my body can grow, grow, grow!
Verse 3:
My stomach is like a mixing pot,
It works with juices, cold or hot.
It turns and churns to break food down,
The hardest worker in this town!
Chorus:
Chomp, chomp, munch, munch!
That's how my stomach works at lunch!
My stomach helps the food all go,
So all my body can grow, grow, grow!
Verse 4:
After mixing and breaking it down,
My stomach sends it out of town!
It pushes food to the next place,
So it can finish the food race!
Chorus:
Chomp, chomp, munch, munch!
That's how my stomach works at lunch!
My stomach helps the food all go,
So all my body can grow, grow, grow!

FAQs
What does the stomach do to food?
The stomach stores food, churns it with muscle movements, and mixes it with acid and enzymes to begin breaking proteins apart.
Why does stomach acid not digest the stomach itself?
The stomach lining makes protective mucus and replaces cells quickly. That helps protect it from its own strong acid.
What happens after food leaves the stomach?
Partly digested food moves into the small intestine, where digestion continues and nutrient absorption begins.
Why does a stomach growl?
Stomach and intestinal muscles keep moving gas and fluid around. Those movements can make rumbling sounds, especially when the stomach is emptier.
