In yellow shoes I get the blues Though I walk the streets with my plastic feet With 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 turquoise waistcoat is quite out of sight But oh oh my haircut looks so bad Vegetable man, where are you? So I've changed my dear, and I find my knees And I covered them up with the latest cut And my pants and socks all point in a box
They don't make long of my nylon socks The watch, black watch My watch with a black face And a big pin, a little hole And all the lot is what I got It's what I wear, it's what you see It must be me, it's what I am Vegetable man I've been looking all over the place for a place for me But it ain't anywhere, it just ain't anywhere Vegetable man, vegetable man He's the kind of person, you just gonna see him if you can Vegetable man
