Lyrics

Pumpkin Soup and Mashed Potatoes

Parmesian carrots with mushrooms

Frankly that I've never been keen on

It's pumpkin soup and mashed potatoes

That's for my Hallowe'en tea

Pumpkin soup and mashed potatoes

That has always been my dream

Physicians moan about the guarantees of vegetables

But to be frank what I'm keen on is that same old scene

Pumpkin soup and mashed potatoes

That is my Hallowe'en tea

Pumpkin soup and mashed potatoes

That's why I'm always keen

Pumpkin soup and mashed potatoes

They'll keep me clean

Pumpkin soup and mashed potatoes

I'm old, not much, but I'm going mad

Because of the starvation that I've had

Clouds rush by

But I always have my dream

Pumpkin soup and mashed potatoes

That is my hallowe'en tea

Pumpkin soup and mashed potatoes
