but actually it's tasty I'm talkin' about food

Me and my friends eat weird things unlike you

Pardon my culture it's just how we do! I know that it sounds crazy

But it's okay I'm Asian

I'm like "Girl whatcha eatin for today?" Put that bread down, lets go and run away

Cuz I'm Asian, I don't know if you could tell. I eat a few things AppleBee's don't sell

ever had dim sum in the mornin' light? I know this chicken feet ain't lookin very

nice But if you taste it, I know you'll really

like eat the skin but leave the bones alright?

Look at me look at me eating tripe now Look at you look at you this is life now

it's fresh, more organic than fast food You could say it looks a lot more natural

No this egg ain't hundred years old And no this cabbage ain't got no mold

And I was hoping she would have a taste! she took one bite and just made a face  

So, I told her like oh baby You're so amazed by everything that I eat

So, I told her like oh baby I know that it looks crazy

But at least I know it's tasty!

I'm talkin' bout food We got different social norms than you

Pardon my culture it's just how we do She said "I don't like this platter"

I'd probably win fear factor!

Yeah, yeah, I said "Girl what ya eat during weekdays"

She said  "salad and pasta each day"
But what about Asian food?

You neva get the chance, cuz you never date Asian dudes!

She said, I liked the weird stuff growing up

But stopped in High School it wasn't cool enough

Cuz you can't serve blood cubes at prom And Stinky tofu just sounds wrong

Stop pretending, you don't like fermented I admit the smell can be offensive

But it tastes so good that you won't need another man

Let the flavors take you back to the motherland  


So I can take you back to my mother and She can teach you how to cook without butter

and- "What do you mean I'm being patriarchal?"
"Oh

ok, I can cook"

So, I told her like oh baby you'll be amazed by everything that I eat

So, I told her like oh baby I know that it looks crazy

But I'm telling you it's tasty

It's balut There's a duck embryo inside just look

Oh, oh. No offense to PETA but it's good I told you it looks crazy

But you know that it's so tasty!

From Manila to Hong Kong Bangkok Tokyo Taiwan

Seoul Singapore, Saigon Jakarta, Beijing, there's more

Phnom Phen, Kuala Lumpur Eat it up baby, it's raw

And no, we ain't eatin no dogs
The most exotic it gets is frogs!

So, I told her like oh baby It's not amazing all the things that we eat

So, I told her like oh baby I know that it looks crazy

It's probably cuz we're Asian

I'm talkin' bout food We got different social norms than you

Can't change my culture it's just how we do She told me it looks crazy

I said it's okay I'm Asian!
