The Duke of Prunes Songtext
von The Mothers of Invention

A moonbeam through the prune in June
Reveals your chest
I see your lovely beans
And in that magic go-kart
I bite your neck
The cheese I have for you my dear
Is real and very new!

A moonbeam through the prune in June
Reveals your chest
I see your lovely beans
And in that magic go-kart
I bite your neck
The love I have for you my dear
Is real and very new!


Prune! (Pah-da-Dahhh)
If it is a real prune (Pah-da-dahhh)
Knows no cheese! (Chunka chunk)
(Chunka chunka chunka chunka chunk)
And stands (Oh no!)
Taller & stronger
Than any tree or bush

And I know The love I have for you
Will grow & grow & grow, I think
And so my love I offer you
A love that is strong
A prune that is true

La la la lala la la lalala la la la la la
La la la la ooooooh!
(Chunka chunka chunka)
La la la lala

My darling, you mean so very much to me
I love you so deeply! It just makes me

(Duke, Duke, Duke, Duke of Prunes, Prunes)
I hardly recognize you, darling
Oh, I′ll never forget you, darling
(Prunes, Duke of Prunes, Prunes, Prunes)
Oh I suppose I will forget you eventually
In fact, I've already forgotten you
(Duke of Prunes, Prunes, Prunes)
What is your name? nice to see you again


And you′ll be my Douchess
My Douchess of Prunes

A moonbeam through the prune in June
Reveals your chest
I see your lovely beans
And in that magic go-kart
I bite your neck
The cheese I have for you my dear
Is real and very new! (New cheese!)

Prunes! (Pah-Da-Dahhh!)
If they are fresh prunes (Pah-Da-Dahhh!)
Know no cheese!
(Chunka Chunka Chinky Chunky Stinky Stanky)
And they just lie there
Drowning & sickening and it's just -- I dunno
And I know, I think
The love I have for you will never end
Well, maybe (Whah!)

And so my love I offer you
A love that is strong
A prune that is true! (Ha Ha!)

This is the exciting part
This is like The Supremes (See the way it builds up?)
Baby! Baby! (D'ya feel it?)
Baby! Baby!
My prune is yours, my love
My cheese for you
My baby prune
My baby prune
I do like you
My baby cheese
You know I do
My dear
I love you
Oh cheesy fat
Oh cheesy fat
Oh cheesy fat
Oh baby fat
Oh cheesy fat
Oh baby blue

Cheesy, cheesy
