The Jesus And Mary Chain

In yellow shoes, I get the blues
So I walk the streets with my plastic feet
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 change my gear and I find my knees
And I cover them up with the latest cut
And my pants and socks all point in a box
And they don t take long for my nylon socks

The watch, black watch
My watch with a black face
And a big pin, a little hole
And all that 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

Ha, ha ha ha, ha ha ha
Ha, ha ha ha, ha ha ha

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

It s the kind of fun where you just gotta see me if you can
