[Verse]
I give the coins to the woman who attends me
And I put the artichoke and beetroot in the bag
I head home with the smell of khella
Stimulating the vagus nerve, chewing on a carrot
I reach the kitchen, the day is getting shorter
I take out the knife, it’s been a while since I’ve cut and seen blood
Nor do I get any smell of cemeteries
I take out the ingredients and it looks like a rainbow
Anyway, I have to boil split yellow pеas
I cook the vegetablеs to make stuffed sweet potatoes
I look at the romanesco
And imagine it in the oven, bathed in romesco sauce
Never let it be a boring dish
Pumpkin soup goes well with curry
Grounded lemon peel and ginger
Sprinkle it on top like moss on a nativity scene
[Chorus]
I eat roots, leaves, vegetables
Legumes, spices, fruits, and stems
Nuts, mushrooms, and grasses
Wildflowers, seaweed
I eat roots, leaves, vegetables
Legumes, spices, fruits, and stems
Nuts, mushrooms, and grasses
Wildflowers, seaweed
Everything the earth provides me, in essence, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
I climb the tallest tree
I gather water from underground
And everything comes back
Everything starts again
In this subsoil, in this field
[Verse]
The quinoa is already boiling
I have frozen parsley and textured soy soaking
Vinaigrette for the tabbouleh
Whole wheat pasta with dulse seaweed, spinach, and mushroom sauce
Zucchini puree
With some crushed oat flakes, it gets much thicker
Aluminum foil for the grilled vegetables
The flame is already alive
I make some rye toast with olive tapenade
Or beet hummus and avocado
A stalk of celery that’s good for dipping
Mutabal
I felt it needed more tahini
I could have cooked the broccolini a little more
Add some lime and sesame seeds
The stove is on
To cook the marinated tofu with nutritional yeast
I’ve also made kimchi
It might go well with potatoes and cabbage when I chop them
[Chorus]
I eat roots, leaves, vegetables
Legumes, spices, fruits, and stems
Nuts, mushrooms, and grasses
Wildflowers, seaweed
I eat roots, leaves, vegetables
Legumes, spices, fruits, and stems
Nuts, mushrooms, and grasses
Wildflowers, seaweed
Everything the earth provides me, in essence, yeah, yeah, yeah
[Post-Chorus]
I climb the tallest tree
I gather water from underground
And everything comes back
Everything starts again
In this subsoil, in this field
