[SEYMOUR (spoken)]
You remember that total eclipse of the sun a couple of weeks ago?
(Da-doo)
I was walkin' through the wholesale flower district that day
(Shoop da-doo)
And I passed by this place where this old Chinese man
(Chang da-doo)
He sometimes sells me weird and exotic cuttings
(Snip da-doo)
'Cause he knows, you see, strange plants are my hobby
(Da da da da da da-doo)
He didn't have anything unusual there that day
(Nope, da-doo)
And I was about to, you know, walk on by
(Good for you)
When suddenly and without warning, there was this
Total eclipse of the sun!
It got very dark
And then I heard this strange humming sound
Like something from another world
(Da-doo)
When the light came back
This weird plant was just sitting there
(Whoop-see-doo)
Just stuck in, you know, among the zinnias
(Audrey Two)
I coulda sworn it hadn't been there before
But the old Chinese man sold it to me anyways
(Sha la la, la la la, la la la loo-oo-ooo)
For a dollar ninety-five
