That Thumb of Green,
That Thumb of Green,
I do not like
that Thumb of Green

Do you like white eggplant and beans?

I do not like them,
Thumb of Green
I do not like
white eggplant and beans!

How about some purple beans?
Would you try one with a queen?
Would you try a yellow bean?
They'll keep you smart and lean!


I only eat green eggs and beans!
I do not want to be smart or lean!
I do not like white eggplant and beans
I do not like them Thumb of Green

Would you like some yellow cukes?
Would you like them with some Dukes?
Would you like a white cucumber?
Eat it next to a pile of lumber


I would not like some yellow cukes
I would not like them with some Dukes
I do not like white cucumbers
I would not like a pile of lumber

I do not like
white eggplant and beans!
I do not like them

Would you like an orange or red pepper?
Would you share it with a shepherd?
Yellow, white, brown and purple peppers?
How about with a leopard?

Would you? could you?
With a shepherd?
Could you? would you?
With a leopard?


I do not eat with a shepherd
I can not eat by a leopard
I do not like white eggplant and beans!
I do not like them Thumb of Green!

Would you like a black tomato?
A white one would be great -Oh!
Would you like a purple potato?
You could eat it in Laredo


I would not like any weird tomatoes!
I will not have a debate -Oh!
I will not go to Laredo
I will not eat a purple potato

You may like them
try and see
They may change
the color of your pee!


I do not like to change my pee!
Thumb of Green you let me be!
I would not like them Thumb of Green
I would not like white eggplant and beans

Would you eat some yellow beets
You can find them at your feets
How about white or with a stripe
Try them! Try them! Do not gripe


I will not eat a veggie with a stripe
I will just sit here and gripe
I will not look about my feets
I could not find and try your beets

How about some bright red lettuce
We could share it - Let us!
We could toss it with red carrots
and share it with the ferrets!

You could try some purple radishes
Smile a little and bat your eyelashes
How about we add some pink radishes
These veggies will not give you rashes.

How about some orange Swiss chard
just don't fry it in some lard
I also have white, yellow and pink
remember to wash it in the sink
