The Jolly Green Giant Lyrics By The Kingsmen

    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 colorblind

    music to fade
