The Vegetables' Halloween Party

by Ralph's World

/

about

It's officially a Ralph's World song, but with Ralph Covert, Steve Gerlach, Mike Hartigan, and Larry Beers joined by ace bassist Matt Fedderman on this blazing blues rock romp, it sure sounds like The Bad Examples... no matter what you call it, it rocks!

lyrics

The potato and the pea are pretending to be pirates
The gourd is a ghost on a ship they sank
The French fry is a ferocious phantom
And the pepper is a prisoner upon the plank
It's the vegetable's Halloween party

The celery is a scary spider
The carrot creeps from his crypt at night
The mushroom is a menacing monster
And the fennel is Frankenstein

It's the vegetable's Halloween party
The vegetable's vampire ball
It's a very scary Halloween party

The artichoke is Alice Cooper
The watercress is a wicked witch
The broccoli is a brooding bandit
Who with the rutabaga robs the rich

It's the vegetable's Halloween party
The vegetable's vampire ball
It's a very scary Halloween party

Okra has her own cable network
So she dressed as the cable guy
Peter Pumpkin is a jack-o-lantern
But the guitar makes him cry

Come inside to the Halloween party
Help yourself to a bowl of chips
Hear the screams from everybody
When you reach for the veggie dip

Eat your vegetables!
Eat your vegetables!
Eat your vegetables!

Their musically rich and lyrically resonant albums were at odds with the aesthetic of grunge, the industry "flavor of the day," and so mainstream success eluded them, but the band has remained true to their sound. ... more
