[Intro]
D A D A
[Verse 1]
D
This song’s about the Tomato Vendetta,
A
and the tale of a man who let a
D
Hate for tomatoes cause him strife,
A D
He lost his job, wife, home, car, kids, and life.
[Bridge 1]
D7
He’d go downtown to buy some groceries,
G
He went because his family was hungry,
D
He always bought red meat and potatoes
A D
But he wouldn’t touch those ugly tomatoes…
[Verse 2]
D
He didn’t know why he hated tomatoes,
A
They were just as ugly as far as ugly goes,
D
There in the store, when no-one was watchin’,
A D
He’d set melons on them and laugh at their squashin’.
[Bridge 2]
D7
One night after shopping and on his way home,
G
His loathing for tomatoes cut to the bone,
D
He just couldn’t stand the strain any more,
A D
He vowed to destroy the Tomato Horde.
[Verse 3]
D
He turned around, and viciously hopin’
A
The grocery stores would still be open,
Bm
His eyes grew cold, for he was a man,
A D
Whose Moment of Truth lay close at hand.
[Bridge 3]
D7
All over town, in every store,
G
Tomatoes were hurt and spilled on the floor,
D
Big melons, and turkeys, and large sacks of grits,
A D
Were dumped on their sections to mash them to bits.
[Verse 4]
