Call any vegetable

Call it by name

You've gotta call one today

When you get off the train

Call any vegetable

And the chances are good

The vegetable will respond to you

La La La La

The vegetable will respond to you

La La La La



Call any vegetable

Pick up your phone

Think of a vegetable

Lonely at home

Call any vegetable

And the chances are good

The vegetable will respond to you

La La La La

The vegetable will respond to you

La La La La

Rutabaga, Rutabaga, Rutabaga, Rutabaga, Rutaba...



No one will know

If you don't want to let them know

No one will know

'less it's you that might tell them so

Call and they'll come to you

Smiling and covered with dew

Vegetable dream

Vegetable dream

Vegetable dream of responding to you

Standing there shiny and proud by your side

Holding your joint while the neighbors decide

Why is a vegetable something to hide

TO HIDE, TO HIDE, TO HIDE,...



Shooo, Shooo, Shoo, Shoo ....

You know a lot of people don't bother about there friends in the vegetable kingdom. They, they think: What can I say? Some times they think: Where can I go?

Where can I go to get my poodle clipped in Burbank?

At Ralph's vegetarian poodle clippin', where you can come this...

Where can I go to get organic vaseline for my ????

At Bob and Ray's swaheli restorant, where you can come this close.....

Where can I go to get my jeans embroided at Fullurton?.....

At jeans, at Jeans North where nothing fits

Where can I go to get my zipper repaired in Hollywood?

Who gives the fuck anyway

Where can I go to get my speakers fixed?

Where can I go to get my exit lights?,

At Jack LaLane Hamburgers on 312 Woodier(?) Boulavard.

Where can I go to get my stomach pumped?

Where can I go to colapse

Hey, De-due.



Questions, Questions, Questions, flooding into the mind of the concerned young person today. Ah, but it's a great time to be alive ladies and gentlemen. And that's the theme of our program for tonight, "It's so FUCKING GREAT to be alive"! Is what the theme of our show is tonight, boys and girls.
