'Vegtables' are the people who in society, do nothing.
Frank believes everyone out their can reach a better/higher potential (so do I). Hence, Call any vegtable and hope they 'see the light'. Its a great double meaning play on words and fun!
@Prune that's right. From Frank Zappa's song-by-song comments on the album: "The best clue to this song might lie in the fact that people who are inactive in a society... people who do not live up to their responsibilities... are vegetables.
I feel that these people... even if they are inactive, apathetic or unconcerned at this point... can be motivated toward a more useful sort of existence. I believe that if you call any vegatable it will respond to you."
