No one will know If you don't want to let 'em know No one will know 'Less it's you that might tell 'em so Call and they'll come to you Covered with dew Vegetables dream Of responding to you Standing there Shiny & proud by your side Holding your hand While the neighbors decide Why is a vegetable Something to hide?
The dark root vegetables on the right brought back an old memory: Back in 1979, Tony Hendra and some of the National Lampoon guys published a parody book about the upcoming decade, The 80s: A Look Back at the Tumultuous Decade 1980-1989. It was hilarious. One part of the book was about the Oil Glut, a point in the decade where petroleum was so ridiculously plentiful that it was used to make artificial food, including black vegetables that were called Crudities. That's what those look like.
Weird that both Brian Wilson and Frank Zappa were recording odes to vegetables in 1967, projecting human emotions on them. Personally, I have never found any vegetable engaging; they seem to simply persist in their state.

Covered with dew
Vegetables dream
Of responding to you
Standing there
Shiny & proud by your side
Holding your hand
While the neighbors decide
Why is a vegetable
Something to hide?
Call any vegetable
Pick up your phone
Think of a vegetable
Lonely at home
Call any vegetable
And the chances are good
That a vegetable will respond to you
Roasted root vegetables are great. Especially good out of your own garden.
That looks like a gigantic spider.
Edible and audible oddities. Beautifully odd. The photo/song combo really made my morning - thanks!

An ode to my favorite vegetable: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1-QzLIjL1u4
Mandrake?
It's healthy to get back to your roots.
"...and I sold the parsnip to a family with four small children."

What’s up, Meade?
Quale, don’t forget the intro to the song: “This is a song about vegetables, they keep ya regular/They’re real good for you.”
That song was the first thing I thought of...it's an odd song but very catchy.
Saw Brian Wilson and some of the Beach Boys at the Sydney Opera House five or six years ago.
He can barely move these days, but his music is really incredible.
I think he's an 'actual' genius...
Mandrake root?
Do you practice the Dark Arts?
How many of those are sexual organs.

The leaves look more appealing.
