[Verse 1]
“Okay, first of all, let’s wash our hands.”
Scrub the tips of our nails with soap.
Next, scrub each finger individually.
Wash between our fingers,
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Clean the backs of our hands, palms, and wrists.
Then rinse with water. “Now, they’re clean.”
[Chorus 1]
A luxurious dinner at a big villa,
Happiness that money can buy.
With a little wisdom and humor,
Small happiness that money can’t buy.
[Verse 2]
“What should we make for dinner?”
I asked my wife. “Hmm,” she groaned.
“What should we make?” She asked back.
“For now, I’ll just cut those yellow flowers.”
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I picked off the flower at the top with my hand,
Then I threw away the leaves covered with leaf miners.
[Chorus 2]
A luxurious dinner at a big villa,
Happiness that money can buy.
With a little wisdom and humor,
Small happiness that money can’t buy.
[Instrumental Solo]
[Verse 3]
I washed only the young leaves with the flowers.
I discarded the tough stems that didn’t look edible.
I did the same with the leaf mustard and Chinese cabbage.
I placed it on a plate and microwaved it at 600W for 7 minutes.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
I poured it into a pot of boiling water.
After thinking for a moment, I added the curry roux.
[Chorus 3]
A luxurious dinner at a big villa,
Happiness that money can buy.
With a little wisdom and humor,
Small happiness that money can’t buy.
[Bridge]
“This is not beef curry, it’s leaf curry!” She said with a big smile.
“I’m glad you noticed,” I replied.
[Final Chorus 3]
A luxurious dinner at a big villa,
Happiness that money can buy.
With a little wisdom and humor,
Small happiness that money can’t buy.
[Instrumental Solo]
