i love the brassica

To the tune of the Pixies' "U-Mass"

In Willow Glen of San José
is a garden full, full o' vegetables
We've collard greens, and mustard greens
and broccoli, and cauliflower
and brussel sprouts, and kale, too
and cabbage there, both red & green,
tur-nips — and kohl rabi
let's not forget the rutabay,
ta-baga

I love the brassica!
I love the brassica!
I love the brassica!
I love the brassica! (x2)

We slice `em up, and make a stir-fry, yeah
all those healthy greens

I love the brassica!
I love the brassica!
I love the brassica!
I love the brassica!
I love the brassica!

The disingenuous part of the song is that i don't care for most of that stuff. Well, that and we're not actually growing most of that, either.

We are growing about half of those.

You (GASP) LIED TO ME?
Sweet pickle relish! My tenuous hold on reality has been rammed like a tree full of ripe almonds. You do not love brassica? You do not crave your cabbages and brussel sprouts, your broccoli and cauliflower? Hold the butter and caraway seeds, Martha!

I must go away and reconstruct my mind . . .
