[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Come on,
Stop playing with snails,
Let’s get to work.
Tomorrow’s meal depends on it.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Let’s think about our next move.
Otherwise, we have no future.
[Chorus 1]
What do you want to eat?
A bright green cucumber.
A big purple eggplant,
A big, round watermelon.
[Verse 2]
Our French neighbor, Alain,
Gave us some perilla seeds.
First, we’ll weed one row,
And plant them there.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
They’re light-loving,
So we’ll use a thin layer of soil.
[Chorus 2]
What do you want to eat?
A bright green cucumber.
A big purple eggplant,
A big, round watermelon.
[Instrumental Solo]
[Verse 3]
Sweet potato sprouts,
The effects of global warming,
Harvesting mustard spinach,
And planting sweet potatoes.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
Alain says our radishes are tastier than the ones at the supermarket.
[Chorus 3]
What do you want to eat?
A bright green cucumber.
A big purple eggplant,
A big, round watermelon.
[Bridge]
She said, “Our skills are not to be sniffed at.”
I said, “He’s a snail, no answer.”
[Final Chorus 3]
What do you want to eat?
A bright green cucumber.
A big purple eggplant,
A big, round watermelon.
