"A Little Bit of Food" is a song sung by Clover, Mia, Robin, and Sofia in the film, Sofia the First: Once Upon a Princess. It explains why woodland creatures have been helping Princesses over the years. Whatnaught is there too, but he doesn't sing, nor does he speak.
Lyrics[]
Clover: We've helped princesses
for many eons
But you treat us all like furry peons
We make your bed
Clean up your messes
Robin and Mia: Wake you up
And put on all your dresses
Clover: And what's our reward?
What thanks do we get?
Not a crumb, not a morsel
No brie, no baguette
Did you really think
after all these years
When we did your chores
we were volunteers?
Clover and birds: A little bit of food is all that we seek
A little bit to eat
Clover: Fill our tummy
Robin and Mia: Wet our beak
Clover and birds: A little bit to munch
Robin: Like breakfast
Mia: Dinner
Clover: Lunch
A nut, a seed, a bean
or just some rice
Clover and birds: 'Cause a little bit of food
would sure be nice
Clover: It really isn't much
Not too much for us to ask
After helping you daily
with each little task
Birds: Just a bite or two
Such a modest fee
Even little songbirds
Shouldn't sing for free
Sofia: Well, if food is what you want
Robin and Mia: Just a little bit
Sofia: You've come to the right castle. Follow me! Ha ha!
Everyone: A little bit to munch
And there's nothing quite like brunch
Clover: So, deliver just a sliver or a slice
Everyone: Of whatever tasty treat
All the royal people eat
Clover: We'd be glad to make some room
Everyone: For a lentil or legume
Clover: If you want some first-class service
Everyone: there's a price
And a little bit of food
Would sure be nice
