lyrics

They’m big and round, grow in the ground,
But in the shops none will be found.
You’d get ‘em cheaper by the pound, they’m called the Mangold – Wurzels.

They feed ‘em to they pigs and sheep,
In best of health it does ‘em keep,
Not for the likes of you and me, they’m called the Mangold – Wurzels.

Now Wurzel Gummage on T.V.,
Could change ‘is ‘ead quite easily,
A turnip? – No, I disagree; it is a Mangold – Wurzel!

Now weem a band you’ve come to see,
The likes of ‘im and ‘im and me!
We’re very glad you’ve stayed – ‘cos we are called the Mangled – Wurzels.

We ain’t that pretty with good looks,
Use words that don’t appear in books,
We try and write songs with good hooks; that end in Mangold – Wurzel!
‘Cos we’re the Mangled – Wurzels.
We’em called the Mangled – Wurzels.
