A lot of people don't bother about their
  friends in the vegetable kingdom. They
  think: Oh, ah, what can I say? What can
  a person like myself say to a vegetable?
  But the answer is simple, my friends:
  Just call, and tell them how you feel
  about muffins...pumpkins...wax
  paper...Caledonia, Mahoganies, elbows
  ...green things in general...and
  soon, a new rapport...you and your
  new little green and yellow buddies,
  grooving together...Oh, no! Maintaining
  your coolness together! Worshipping
  together in the church of your
  choice...(only in America...)*
  
  Call any vegetable Call it by name
  Aw, you gotta call one today
  When you get off the train
  
  Call any vegetable
  And the chances are good
  WOW! That the vegetable will *RESPOND* to you
  
  *Oh, no! Can you see them responding? The
  pumpkin is breathing hard...h-h-h-h
  h-h-h-H-H-H-H-H-H-H - H - HHHHHHHHHHHH!
  (What a pumpkin!)
