Silly Yak

He's a Silly Yak, his name is Jack
He's a fun lovin' guy and he's got a knack
For choreography
He loves tap, ballet and swing

He starts his day with breakfast to get a good start
He eats egg whites and fruit for a healthy heart
But he'd better stay away from wheat-based cereals

He's a Silly Yak with Celiac
He's intolerant of gluten and that's a fact
Eating barley, rye or wheat might knock him off his feet

So he's gotta be careful when picking snacks
Or his tummy will ache and he'll have lots of gas
And that would put our Yak, Jack, out of whack

Ooo, what's next?

Now off to dance class with his bags all packed
He's gotta learn the moves to a brand new track
A pas de bourrée, step-ball-change, repeat

(He's actually a pretty good dancer)

With the 32-count all memorized
Jack needs to get re-energized
So he reaches in his bag for his gluten-free power bar

He's a Silly Yak with Celiac
He's intolerant of gluten and that's a fact
Eating barley, rye or wheat might knock him off his feet

So he's gotta be careful when picking snacks
Or his tummy will ache and he'll have lots of gas
And that would put our Yak, Jack, out of whack
And on his back
(Yeah, yeah, yeah)

No bread for Jack, not even rye
There's even gluten in the crust of a pie
But load up his plate with potatoes and rice
And fruits and veggies are perfectly nice

Charcuterie
Sounds good to me
'Cause meats and cheeses are gluten free
Also buckwheat, chia, quinoa, soy, and flax

He's a Silly Yak with Celiac
He's intolerant of gluten and that's a fact
Eating barley, rye or wheat might knock him off his feet

So he's gotta be careful when picking snacks
Or his tummy will ache and he'll have lots of gas
And that would put our Yak, Jack, out of whack
And on his back

And that would put our Yak, Jack, out of whack
(And we don't want that for Jack, right?)
And that would put our Yak, Jack, out of whack
What a Silly Yak
Jack
