| In yellow shoes I get the blues
|
| Though I walk the street in my plastic feet,
|
| With blue velvet trousers makes me feel pink,
|
| There’s a kind of stink about blue velvet trousers,
|
| In my paisley shirt, I look a jerk,
|
| And my turquoise waistcoat is quite out of sight,
|
| But oh, oh, my haircut looks so bad!
|
| Vegetable man, where are you?
|
| So I changed my gear and I found my knees,
|
| And I cover them up with the latest cuts,
|
| And my pants and my socks I bought in a box,
|
| It don’t take long to buy nylon socks,
|
| The watch, black watch, my watch with a black face,
|
| And the date in a little hole,
|
| And all the lot is what I’ve got,
|
| It’s what I wear, it’s what you see,
|
| It must be me, it’s what I am…
|
| Vegetable man, where are you?
|
| Ha, ha ha ha, ha ha ha.
|
| Ha, ha ha ha, ha ha ha.
|
| Oh I’ve been looking all over the place for a place for me,
|
| But it ain’t anywhere,
|
| It just ain’t anywhere.
|
| Vegetable man (vegetable man),
|
| Vegetable man (vegetable man),
|
| Vegetable man (vegetable man),
|
| Vegetable man (vegetable man),
|
| He’s the kind of guy that you just gotta see if you can,
|
| Vegetable man… |
