Eat your greens
Don't forget your beans & celery
Don't forget to bring
Your fake I.D.
Eat a bunch of these
MAGNIFICENT
With sauerkraut
MMMMMMMMMMM
Sauerkraut
Eat a grape, a fig
A crumpet too . . .
You'll pump 'em right through
Doo-wee-ooo

Eat your shoes
Don't forget the strings
And sox
Even eat the box
Your bought 'em in
You can eat the truck
That brought 'em in
Garbage truck
MMMMMMMMMMMMouldy
Garbage truck
Eat the truck & driver
And his gloves
NUTRITIOUSNESS
DELICIOUSNESS
WORTHLESSNESS

    General Comment:Okay . . . for starters, the title is "Son of Mr. Green Genes", not "Son of Mr. Greengenes". That is the first issue. Next, this song is not even "Son of Mr. Green Genes", but actually "Mr. Green Genes", as released on 'Uncle Meat'.

    "Son of Mr. Green Genes" is a heavily arranged, though jam session-esque, variation on "Mr. Green Genes" and was released on 'Hot Rats' by Zappa and Ian Underwood. "Son of Mr. Green Genes" has no lyrics.

    "Mr. Green Genes" is a track from Zappa and the Mothers album 'Uncle Meat [Most of the Music from the Mother's Movie of the Same Name Which We Haven't Got Enough Money to Finish Yet]'. It was also rendered live, lyrics included, on 'The Best Band You Never Heard In Your Life'.

    It is a shame that real Zappa fans don't get on this site and add the interpretations to these fantastically odd lyrics . . .
