Avocado
The Vegetable Plot Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Ladies and gentlestems
Bulbs and girls
It′s time to GET FRESH
THROW YOUR ROOT DOWN
TWIST AND SPROUT
With the funkiest, filthiest band in town

Avocado
Avocado
Eat one in the morning or the arvo
You can eat him on toast or even just plain
He is good for your body and he's good for your brain
Avocado
Avocado
Eat him with some lettuce and tomato
He is dark green on the outside, pale green on the in
You can eat all his flesh but do not eat his skin

Avocado
Avocado
I guess you′d say I'm an aficionado
You can eat him with meat, vegetables or beans
You can smush him into paste and rub him on your jeans
Avocado
Avocado
From Amsterdam to Denver Colorado
You can wrap him up in sushi, serve him up with salt
If you eat him up too quick it's really not his fault

Everybody shake your stems
Twist and sprout
Rock out with your broc out

Avocado
Avocado
Worship at his feet like the Mikado
When you scoop out his stone you leave him holy
Mash him in a bowl for guacamole
Avocado
Avocado
Eat him till you′re incommunicado
But wait till he goes squish before you put him on your dish
Cover him in chilli and rub him on a fish

Avocado (Avocado)
Avocado (Avocado)
Eat one in the morning or the arvo
Avocado (Avocado)
Avocado (Avocado)
Eat one in the morning or the arvo
Avocado (Avocado)
Avocado (Avocado)
Eat one in the morning or the arvo
Avocado (Avocado)




Avocado (Avocado)
Eat one in the morning or the arvo
