[Verse 1: Clyde]
I called it celery when it started out,
Said it's too green and white, can't throw it out.
It's been a vegetable in such a long time now.
That celery.

[Verse 2: Clyde]
I brought home every vegetable a week.
I had cucumbers and some cabbage on my old street.
Then I taught myself how to remember one thing,
That's called celery.

[Pre-Chorus: Clyde]
Just ask me where it is, I'll get it right away.
It'll only be a minute, just then I'll make you pay.
They'll be in a store, in an isle, where they get stuck in a pile,
Tomatoes, lima beans, no potatoes for a while.
Never get too fat while eating too much, you see.
You gotta love some celery.

[Verse 3: Clyde]
I called it celery when I went to the farm,
Got some plants from farmers, boy, they're selling a barn.
And those seeds have been planted, with no other harm.
Do they call it celery?

[Chorus: Clyde]
Just ask us how they made it, we'll tell you how it begins.
Give him some weight and more pounds on it, and just wait 'til it's the end!
They'll be in a store, in an isle, where they get stuck in a pile,
Tomatoes, lima beans, no potatoes for a while.
Never get too fat while eating too much, you see.
You gotta love some celery.

[Bridge: Clyde]
Always eat some vegetables for sale-y,
Never eat too much or you'll get skinny.
Never get too fat while eating too much, you see.
You gotta love some celery!

[Outro: Clyde]
I called it celery when it started out,
It's been a vegetable such a long time now.

And that was celery.
