Purple Soup and Green Spaghetti 

Sometimes life carries us into the unknown
We’re faced with unfamiliar things; our fears arise, our mind is blown
But sometimes bravery leads us to good fortune unforeseen;
I met this lovely lady, and she wowed me with cuisine!

She served me
Purple soup and green spaghetti
She set the table when the dinner was ready
We popped some champagne and threw some confetti
And we ate purple soup and green spaghetti

Now the first time she served me the spaghetti and the soup
I didn’t know what it was; it kinda threw me for a loop
‘Cause when it comes to trying new things, I’m really not ambitious
But I liked her, so I ate it. And guess what? It was delicious!

She served me
Purple soup and green spaghetti
She set the table when the dinner was ready
We popped some champagne and threw some confetti
And we ate purple soup and green spaghetti

Now among my friends it’s true that I’ve developed notoriety
As one who tends to shy away from culinary variety
I don’t care for the snails they eat in high society
If the food is weird I’ll be polite, and then I’ll sneak away quietly…

She said,  “I’ve made strawberry shortcake for the grand finale”
Well I knew what that was, so I felt relieved and jolly
But then she said, “There’s no strawberries …
I made it with kiwi fruit instead.”
Well, I put my face into my hands
But then I smiled and said,
I’ll bet it goes with…

Purple soup and green spaghetti
Set the table cause the dinner is ready
Pop some champagne and throw some confetti
And we’ll eat purple soup and green spaghetti

And pretty soon we were going steady,
And eating lots more green spaghetti!
Purple soup and green spaghetti …
And kiwi fruit shortcake!
