The Lyrics

Potato, zucchini, don't be such a weenie
Try tomato, banana, come on, pretty nana
Bell pepper, avocado, why don't we all waddle
Zucchini

Near the place that makes keys, there's a place called the grocery store
Just walk in through the door and you can buy it all
Deli beef and ham, berries, fresh, dried, or in jam,
You'll be falling in love to the smell of french fries made of yam
Down at the grocery store

Potato, zucchini, don't be such a weenie
Try tomato, banana, come on, pretty nana
Bell pepper, avocado, why don't we all waddle
To the grocery store
We'll eat and eat and then we'll eat some more
Till we fall on the floor
Of the grocery store
Eggs and cheese, I'd like to buy some, please

At the pharmacy, everything's made by chemistry
Though nothing here can defy the slightest bit of gravity
We take great delight in curing mosquito bites
And if you have the flu, taking these pills is the thing to do
Down at the grocery store

Potato, zucchini, don't be such a weenie
Try tomato, banana, come on, pretty nana
Bell pepper, avocado, why don't we all waddle
To the grocery store
We'll eat and eat and then we'll eat some more
Till we fall on the floor
Of the grocery store
Pear and peach, I'd like three pounds of each

Everybody knows how to shop at the grocery store
Shopping there is not a chore because you can buy it all
Down at the grocery store

Potato, zucchini, don't be such a weenie
Try tomato, banana, come on, pretty nana
Bell pepper, avocado, why don't we all waddle
To the grocery store
We'll eat and eat and then we'll eat some more
Till we fall on the floor
Of the grocery store

Well, this is not too shabby; good in fact. Syllables and intonation are spot on so it sings just like the original. Around here we say the pacing is good. Dont be discouraged that there has been little feedback so far. The site is in a doldrum at the moment. Hopefully. other old timers will have things to say by tomorrow

18 year veteran here, nice job! Challenge yourself on the next one by changing the chorus every time. It really adds to the humor.
