"The Jolly Green Giant" lyrics

"The Jolly Green Giant"

In duh valley of duh jolly... (ho-ho-ho)

Heard about the jolly green giant (potatoes)
He's so big and mean (artichoke hearts)
He stands there laughin' with his hands on his hips
And then he hits you with a can of beans

He lives down there in his valley (Brussels sprouts)
The cat stands tall and green (spinach)
Well, he ain't no prize, and there's no women his size
And that's why the cat's so mean
One day he left his valley pad
I mean to say this cat was mad
Now listen 'round he wasn't gone long
And then he ran into an amazon
Well, this changed his whole complexion (broccoli)
He had never seen such a beautiful sight (corn)

Well, he looked at her
And she looked at him
And she almost passed out from fright
He looked at her thought, "what a dilly"
He touched her once she slapped him silly
This was something he had never sensed
He looked at her as she commenced
Now listen, pal this ain't no fluke
I can't see goin' with a big green kook"

You've heard about the jolly green giant (eggplant)
Don't let his troubles cross your mind (celery stalks)
He couldn't get sally, so went back to his valley
The cat was color-blind
