Digestion Song

Your mouth controls
Chewing food with saliva
Moisten food changing
Starch to a sugar, now
Your throat makes food go down
Pharynx, gullet
Esophagus

Food travels down esophagus
To the stomach
Now it's speeding away
Digestive tract
Yeah, stomach
Will crush and swish
The food and juice
In folds,
rugae

Pass the lips, pharynx
Through esophagus
Peristalsis
In the stomach churned with digestive juices
Into the small intestine
Digestion
Water, fiber
Into large intestine
Colon
Water is absorbed into your bloodstream
The semi-solid feces
Out rectum, now
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

The food will move to a tube
Small intestine
Duodenum, jejunum and ileum
Now, the juice is there is here
From the liver
And pancreas
It will break down the proteins
Starch and the fats
Digestive glands help to make juices-enzymes
Yeah, the liver makes bile, breaks fat
Enzymes work out
Breaking them down

Pass the lips, pharynx
Through esophagus
Peristalsis
In the stomach churned with digestive juices
Into the small intestine
Digestion
Water, fiber
Into large intestine
Colon
Water is absorbed into your bloodstream
The semi-solid feces
Out rectum, now
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh,
Oh, oh

Water, fiber
Digest, it not
Large intestine
Is called colon
Water absorbed
Into bloodstream
Feces is pushed
Out the rectum

Pass the lips, pharynx
Through esophagus
Peristalsis
In the stomach churned with digestive juices
Into the small intestine
Digestion
Water, fiber
Into large intestine
Colon
Water is absorbed into your bloodstream
The semi-solid feces
Out rectum, now
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
