Lyrics
Vegetable Friend
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Where two spiders wander
In and out of thunder
I will sit and wonder with my vegetable friend
Where two lions water
After casual slaughter
I will kiss the daughter of my vegetable friend
Where the fire's glistening
Nobody is listening
I will do the christening of my vegetable friend
It's raining in Europe
But I've got no proof
I've got the semolina blues
Where two legs are boiling
They will not need oiling
I'm forever toiling with my vegetable friend
Under dirty sacking
Somebody is cracking
Nobody is lacking like my vegetable friend
