Legumes

How many times
Has your mother once said
To eat
Your vegetables please
The green beans and peas

But alas!
A misnomer she speaks
'Cause beans
Don't have veggie genes
They're something else

Technically
They would be

Legumes
What are they?
They're unique in their own bizarre way
Beans, chickpeas and lentils too
Are considered legumes
They're special
Not a nut, not a vegetable
Will we ever find the truth
About what's a legume?

FROG: Um, hello
FROG: Oh so you think just because I'm green
I know what a legume is, huh?
FROG: Nah, I'm just kidding. I know how to play the banjo though!

When did you learn
That your life is a lie
Because peanuts are not what you think
(I'll give you one guess!)

Technically
They would be

Legumes
What are they?
They're unique in their own bizarre way
Beans, chickpeas and lentils too
Are considered legumes
They're special
Not a nut, not a vegetable
Will we ever find the truth
About what's a legume

LOUIS: I see beans of green
LOUIS: Well according to the internet, a legume is a leguminous plant!
LOUIS: Trumpet solo!

LOUIS: Don't worry about it!

Legumes
(Oh we're all singing now?)
What are they?
(Alright)
They're unique in their own bizarre way
Beans, chickpeas and lentils too
Are considered legumes
They're special
Not a nut, not a vegetable
Will we ever find the truth
About what's a legume?
