 Verse&nbsp;2: 
 
 He&nbsp;lives&nbsp;down&nbsp;there&nbsp;in&nbsp;his&nbsp;valley&nbsp;&nbsp;(Brussels&nbsp;sprouts) 
 The&nbsp;cat&nbsp;stands&nbsp;tall&nbsp;and&nbsp;green&nbsp;&nbsp;(spinach) 
 Well,&nbsp;he&nbsp;ain't&nbsp;no&nbsp;prize,&nbsp;and&nbsp;there's&nbsp;no&nbsp;women&nbsp;his&nbsp;size 
 And&nbsp;that's&nbsp;why&nbsp;the&nbsp;cat's&nbsp;so&nbsp;mean 
 
 Bridge&nbsp;1: 
 
 E&nbsp;F&nbsp;[N.C.] 
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;One&nbsp;day&nbsp;he&nbsp;left 
 E&nbsp;F&nbsp;[N.C.] 
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;His&nbsp;valley&nbsp;pad 
 E&nbsp;F&nbsp;[N.C.] 
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I&nbsp;mean&nbsp;to&nbsp;say 
 E&nbsp;F&nbsp;[N.C.] 
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;This&nbsp;cat&nbsp;was&nbsp;mad 
 E&nbsp;F&nbsp;[N.C.] 
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Now&nbsp;listen&nbsp;'round 
 E&nbsp;F&nbsp;[N.C.] 
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;He&nbsp;wasn't&nbsp;gone&nbsp;long 
 E&nbsp;F&nbsp;F#&nbsp;G&nbsp;[N.C.]&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;C7 
 &nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;And&nbsp;then&nbsp;he&nbsp;ran&nbsp;into&nbsp;an&nbsp;Amazon 
 
 Verse&nbsp;3: 
 
 Well,&nbsp;this&nbsp;changed&nbsp;his&nbsp;whole&nbsp;complexion&nbsp;&nbsp;(broccoli) 
 He&nbsp;had&nbsp;never&nbsp;seen&nbsp;such&nbsp;a&nbsp;beautiful&nbsp;sight&nbsp;&nbsp;(corn) 
 Well,&nbsp;he&nbsp;looked&nbsp;at&nbsp;her 
 And&nbsp;she&nbsp;looked&nbsp;at&nbsp;him 
 And&nbsp;she&nbsp;almost&nbsp;passed&nbsp;out&nbsp;from&nbsp;fright 
 
 Bridge&nbsp;2: 
 
 He&nbsp;looked&nbsp;at&nbsp;her 
 Thought,&nbsp;"what&nbsp;a&nbsp;dilly" 
 He&nbsp;touched&nbsp;her&nbsp;once 
 She&nbsp;slapped&nbsp;him&nbsp;silly 
 This&nbsp;was&nbsp;something 
 He&nbsp;had&nbsp;never&nbsp;sensed 
 He&nbsp;looked&nbsp;at&nbsp;her 
 As&nbsp;she&nbsp;commenced 
 Now&nbsp;listen,&nbsp;pal 
 This&nbsp;ain't&nbsp;no&nbsp;fluke 
 "I&nbsp;can't&nbsp;see&nbsp;goin'&nbsp;with&nbsp;a&nbsp;big&nbsp;green&nbsp;kook" 
 
 Verse&nbsp;4: 
 
 You've&nbsp;heard&nbsp;about&nbsp;the&nbsp;Jolly&nbsp;Green&nbsp;Giant&nbsp;&nbsp;(eggplant) 
 Don't&nbsp;let&nbsp;his&nbsp;troubles&nbsp;cross&nbsp;your&nbsp;mind&nbsp;&nbsp;(celery&nbsp;stalks) 
 He&nbsp;couldn't&nbsp;get&nbsp;Sally,&nbsp;so&nbsp;went&nbsp;back&nbsp;to&nbsp;his&nbsp;valley 
 The&nbsp;cat&nbsp;was&nbsp;color-blind 
 
 [repeat&nbsp;verse&nbsp;w/wordless&nbsp;vocal] 
 
 &nbsp;&nbsp;...&nbsp;(carrots) 
 &nbsp;&nbsp;...&nbsp;(canned&nbsp;beans)
