The Mushroom Song

(album: Walk Off The Earth & Romeo Eats, Vol. 2 - 2022)

You ain't afraid of the dark, and you're the bite of the bark
Hanging in out in the shade, and popping up in bouquets
You start off as a spore
And you dominate the modern fork

Portobello ain't tall but it's the belle of the ball
Enoki grows in a bunch, and it goes in your lunch
Even if the King Oyster doesn't grow in the sea
It cooks like meat and just as savory

Oh mushrooms, ain't nobody who can touch you
I said mushrooms, finest fungus on the menu
From forever to the present
Photoluminescent
Ain't no rookie who can boogie like a super fungi

(Fun fun guy) Oh he's a fun guy
(Fun fun guy) Oh he's a fun guy
(Fun fun guy) Oh he's a fun guy
(Fun fun guy)
From forever to the present
Photoluminescent
Ain't no rookie who can boogie like a super fungi

You might be surprised, at just how much we're alike
Half our genes are the same, I'm talking D.N.A
They hold a lot of water, potassium and copper, and if you
Dream of being a vegan it's a mean burger topper

Oh mushrooms, ain't nobody who can touch you
I said mushrooms, finest fungus on the menu
From forever to the present
Photoluminescent
Ain't no rookie who can boogie like a super fungi

(Fun fun guy) Oh he's a fun guy
(Fun fun guy) Oh he's a fun guy
(Fun fun guy) Oh he's a fun guy
(Fun fun guy)
From forever to the present
Photoluminescent
Ain't no rookie who can boogie like a super fungi

If you're fixing for a forage any forest'll work
Get a-sniffin for a truffle with your nose in the dirt
If you're pickin for your kitchen, making meals or dessert
You can find em in the wild all over the Earth

The magic ones are magic, the poison ones are tragic
N'even if it's yummy doesn't mean that you can have it

(Fun fun guy) Oh he's a fun guy
(Fun fun guy) Oh he's a fun guy
(Fun fun guy) Oh he's a fun guy
(Fun fun guy)
From forever to the present
Photoluminescent
Ain't no rookie who can boogie like a super fungi

We could be best friends forever
