This video is a product of the Food Safety Family Swingers and it exemplifies our attempts at getting the message out using our creative resources. Doug and I wrote the song together while thinking about the spinach E. coli O157:H7 outbreak in the fall of 2006 and what caused it. It really boils down to our favorite message: Don't eat poop.Poop in the Field Lyrics
POOP IN THE FIELD (YOU GIVE SPINACH A BAD NAME)
A convenient product is what you sell
you promise me freshness then put me through hell
diarrhea's got a hold on me
when my washroom's a prison I can't break free
-
Whoa -- the bag's the smoking gun, yeah
Whoa -- now I've got the runs
No one can save me the damage is done!
-
Poop in the field, manure's to blame
You give spinach a bad name
I ate it fresh and it gave me pain
You give spinach... a bad name.
-
Leafy greens touched my lips
Blood black stool on my fingertips
Pre-washed marketing is just a lie
'Cause ready to eat means ready to die!
-
Whoa -- the bag's the smoking gun, yeah
Whoa -- now I've got the runs
No one can save me, the damage is done!
-
Poop in the field, manure's to blame
You give spinach a bad name
I ate it fresh, it gave me pain
You give spinach a bad name...
