[Miggles:] It was an evil hour when I met my Mary Ann,
Oh, woe! woe the day!
She was living with her mother on the vegetable plan,
Yea, verily yea!
She said if I would try it,
The cold potato diet,
I'd regulate my liver and become another man.
Though seriously doubting,
I took to Brussels sprouting,
And now you see what's left of me-
A Vegetarian.
I am a radish gone to seed,
I am the thinnest of my breed,
Roots and fruits and asparagus shoots,
Come all, ye heathen, come and feed.
I am a radish gone to seed,
I am the thinnest of my breed,
Roots and fruits and asparagus shoots,
Come all, ye heathen, come and feed.

For breakfast we had porridge, for dinner we had fruits,
Oh, woe! woe the day!
And if we had a supper it was principally roots,
Yea, verily yea!
Each time I ate my dinner
I grew a little thinner,
To sympathize with skeletons I very soon began.
To win her lovely daughter
My only drink was water
And now you see what's left of me-
A Vegetarian.
I am a radish gone to seed,
I am the thinnest of my breed,
Roots and fruits and asparagus shoots,
Come all, ye heathen, come and feed.
I am a radish gone to seed,
I am the thinnest of my breed,
Roots and fruits and asparagus shoots,
Come all, ye heathen, come and feed.

It was a dreadful hour when a butcher bold appear'd.
Oh, woe! woe the day!
He cock'd his eye at Mary Ann exactly as I fear'd,
Yea, verily yea!
My chest was rather narrow
From vegetable marrow,
But his was broad and bulging like the cover of a van.
In spite of all I hoped,
One morning they eloped,
And now you see what's left of me-
A Vegetarian.
I am a radish gone to seed,
I am the thinnest of my breed,
Roots and fruits and asparagus shoots,
Come all, ye heathen, come and feed.
I am a radish gone to seed,
I am the thinnest of my breed,
Roots and fruits and asparagus shoots,
Come all, ye heathen, come and feed.
