Vegetable Man - The Soft Boys

In yellow shoes

I get the blues

So I walk the street

In plastic feet

In my blue velvet trousers

Make me feel pink

There’s a kind of stink

About blue velvet trousers

In my paisley shirt

I look a jerk

And my turqoise waistcoat

Is quite out of sight

But oh woe, my haircut looks so bad

Vegetable man, where are you?

So I change my gear

And I buy my jeans

Then I cover them up

With the latest cut

My socks with water and epoxy

It don’t take long to buy nylon socks

I watch my watch with a plain face and the date

In a whole hole

It’s what I wear, it’s what you see

It must be me

It’s what I am

Vegetable man

Ah ha ha ha ha ha hha

Ah ha ha ha ha ha hha

Oh, I’ve been looking all over the place

For a place for me

But it ain’t anywhere

It just ain’t anywhere

He’s the kind of fella

You just got to see if you can

Vegetable man

Vegetable man

Vegetable man

Vegetable man

Vegetable man

He’s the kind of fella

You just got to see if you can

Vegetable man
