Vegetables Lyrics
I'm gonna be round my vegetables
I'm gonna chow down my vegetables
I love you most of all
My favorite vege-table
If you brought a big brown bag of them home
I'd jump up and down and hope you'd toss me a carrot
I'm gonna keep well my vegetables
Cart off and sell my vegetables
I love you most of all
My favorite vege-table
Oh oh taba vega vegel
I tried to kick the ball but my tenny flew right off
I'm red as a beet 'cause I'm so embarassed
Oh oh dum do dum de dooby do
Oh oh dum do dum de dooby do
Oh oh dum do dum de dooby do
oh yeah
Oh badumday oh dum do dum de dooby do
Oh badumday oh dum do dum de dooby do
Chomp chomp chomp chomp do-do-do do-do-do
Bop bop bop bop do-do-do do-do-do

This song is the missing link between The Beach Boys and Paul McCartney. James, as we shall call him, is heard on this track eating vegetables with The Beach Boys.
Brian Wilson was obsessed with health. During one studio outtake during the Smile Era (Circa 67) Brian keeps talking about the dangers of Smog. The song "I'm In Great Shape" was slated to be on Smile. However, as of 1990 it was never heard, and no tape of it could be found.
This song makes me happy every time I hear it :)
The vegetable crunching percussion is genius, I love it whenever biting/munching is used in a song.
I love this song EXCEPT for the crunching. It makes me feel nauseous. I hate hearing people chew. To each his/her own, though! Glad it delights someone.

I was sure this was about drugs when I first heard it, I mean "If you brought a big brown bag of them home I'd jump up and down and hope you'd toss me a carrot", no?
A big brown bag? Drugs? Noooo, not squeaky clean Brian Wilson! I think it IS about vegetables, but he did like an extra layer of meaning in some of his songs, especially when he came up with his Smile project, which may have been inspired in part by his experiences on acid.
