Carrot Juice is Murder

[Modem Butterfly]

Listen up brothers and sisters, come hear my desperate tale
I speak of our friends of nature, trapped in the dirt like a jail
Vegtables live in oppression, served on our tables each night
This killing of veggies is madness, I say we take up the fight
Salads are only for murderers, cole slaw's a fascist regime
Don't think that they don't have feelings, just cause a radish can't scream

Chorus:
I've heard the screams of the vegetables(Scream... scream... scream)
Watching their skins being peeled (Having their insides revealed)
Grated and steamed with no mercy..(Burning off calories)
How do you think that feels? (That it hurts really bad)
Carrot juice constitutes murder..(And that's a real crime)
greenhouses prisons for slaves (Let my vegetables go!)
It's time to stop all this gardening..(It's dirty as hell)
Let's call a spade a spade. (is a spade is a spade is a)

I saw a man eating celery, so I beat him black and blue
If he ever touches a sprout again, I'll bite him clean in two
I'm a political prisoner, trapped in a windowless cage
'Cause I stopped the slaughter of turnips, by killing five men in a rage
I told the judge when he sentenced me, "This is my finest hour!
I'd kill those farmers again, just to save one more cauliflower!"

CHORUS

How low as people do we dare to stoop?
Making young broccolis bleed in the soup
Untie your beans! Uncage your tomatoes!
Let potted plants free! Don't mash that potato!! Whoa!... Whoa!... Whoa!...

I've heard the screams of the vegetables(Scream... scream... scream)
Watching their skins being peeled (Into the stirfryer sealed)
Grated and steamed with no mercy..(You fat gormet slob)
How do you think that feels? (Leave them out in the field)
Carrot juice constitutes murder..(V-8's genocide)
greenhouses prisons for slaves (yes, your composts are graves)
It's time to stop all this gardening..(Take Up macrame)
Let's call a spade a spade. (is a spade is a spade is a)

1. oh the cries of the carrots!

this is necessary, life feeds on life feeds on life feeds on life...

where did this all originate from?
i think i am familiar with it from that "hidden" track on Tool's Undertow album?

3. ahh

Dr. Dememnto, i haven't scene or heard from him in years.

does he still do the radio show?

and to the tool track has a man speaking lines similar to these almost sounding like a preacher.

is the Worms song a singy song sort of song?

[Modem Butterfly]

4. It's a dead-on parody of an acoustic protest song

I love acoustic music, I love protest music, I love parody music, so I listen to this song and I just have a big ol' shit-eating grin on my face.

5. Ahhh The Arrogant Worms...

If I remember they also do two songs I enjoy called "I am Cow" and "forgive us We're Canadian"
