The Sound Of Urchin – Green Green Gold lyrics
Uh yeah
What's up my man?
[Tomato
Not much guy, what up?]
Well, not much here goin' on except the usual stuff (Erotica!)
I got a haircut yesterday (Yester..)
I worked all day today (At recess)
I'm goin' to Boston this weekend (Dirty water)
To see my sister and her husband (Eddy!)
And you, how've you been?
[Well, I've been alright, Eleven
I've been hanging here and there (Brooklyyynn)
Eatin' apples, peaches, pears and prunes]
Oh yeah, that sound's good (healthy!)
[Yeah, I've been eatin' healthy food
And I've been eatin' really good]
Well, I've been eatin' healthy too
I had a banana and a muffin (breakfast)
And some salad and some stuffin' (Thanksgivin')
And some chick peas and spaghetti (Italian)
With some hummus pita bread (6th St.)
And some lowfat kinda sauce (we boughtcha?)
On my mixed up salad tossed ()
[Oh yeah, that sounds great]
It was a totally healthy day
But somethin' crazy happened
[Tomato, keep on rappin']
Well, after my meal, I started to feel kinda weird
(Like my mouth burn)
My skin started turnin' green (little sprout)
And my body feel lean ()
I shrunk to about 2 percent
And my bones turned into stems
And as my body jilted
I felt myself get wilted
[Oh, this is beyond belief]
Yeah, I became a lettuce leaf
I dove into the salad (backflip!)
And swam amongst the dressin' (Paul Newman's)
I rolled atop a carrot (Long Ranger)
with the pepper pieces pressing (rubber?)
up against the side of the bowl
And the chick peas as good as gold (gold recorrrrdd)
And my ears, they started ring, as the ears of corn started singin'
They sang a song of hope, and this is how it goes:
I think it's so groovy now, that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's wondererful and how that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's so groovy now, that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's wondererful and how that people are finally gettin' together
I said, "Oh corn, oh corn, oh corn, I really like that song"
I said, "Oh corn, oh corn, oh corn, (corn!) I really like that song"
[Oh yeah, that corn can sing.
A, let meh do my thing:
I think it's so groovy now, that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's wondererful and how that people are finally gettin' together]
I think it's so groovy now, that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's wondererful and how that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's so groovy now, that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's wondererful and how that people are finally gettin' together
[So what happened next?]
Well, I'll tell you about the rest:
I was singing with the corn (Brooklyn)
But feelin' kinda torn (party)
'Cause a little basil leaf (Brooklyn)
was startin' to flirt with me (party)
I said, "Hey there little one (Brooklyn)
I'll kiss you when I'm done" (party)
Singing salad songs (Brooklyn)
But for now, you sing along (party)
Baby, baby
What do you say?
Whisper in my ear
Tell me how much you love me on a sunny day
[Yo man, (who me?)
Good grief soul teacha'
Get on the basil leaf] (woooooo)
Well, let's just say I tried (really?)
Lettuce don't move in stride (Grbrrp-brrp-gold)
But I made it to her/the hill (wake up man)
And I tasted chlorophyl (green green gold)
A photosynthesis reaction (green green gold)
It's some prime satisfaction (gree-gree-gold)
My CO2, her H2O made red wine blush
The onion peeled off all it's skin
and jumped the orange crush (booom!)
Oh, my, God, broc-coli Rob - get/yea
Oh, my, God, broc-coli Rob - boing
Oh, my, God, broc-coli Rob - errrt
Oh, my, God, broc-coli Rob
Then my leaves started to sprout
The end became my mouth (what's goin' on?)
The stems became my limbs
And I felt myself begin to grow back into me
I sprouted eyes to see
My body (bigger) was back to size (bigger)
From beneath me, (bigger) I heard cries (aaaaah!)
Oh, the helpless vegetables
Damn! I crushed the salad bowl
I stepped away to see
the sad plants under me.
As they lay there silently
I thought 'bout basil leaf
And the love that she gave me
And the corn's sweet melody:
It's so groovy now, that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's wondererful and how that people are finally gettin' together
[Man, that was some ordeal]
Bobby, it was for real!
[How did it feel to be a plant?]
I want to describe it, but I can't
Let's just say it's comfortable
A top the salad bowl
Singin' with the corn
Come on, man, sing their song:
I think it's so groovy now, that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's wondererful and how that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's so groovy now, that people are finally gettin' together
I think it's wondererful and how that people are finally gettin' together
Brrrrooooarr
