ベジタリズム - Vegetable Rhythm

This video showed up on my FB feed and I saw the most amazing and catchy thing I've seen from Japan in a long time.  The kids dancing are amazing! It really matches the song so well.



Here are the lyrics to the song in Japanese and the translation.  If you want to see more information about this song see Makiko Itoh's explanation: Japanese Culture: What's the story behind the "Vegeta-rhythm" (ベジタリズム, bejitarizumu) video?

今日は野菜で やさしい気分で 鍋に入れたら ベジタリズムだよー ママはメニューで パパは会社で みんな笑顔で ベジタリズムだよー きって やいて むいて あげて にて むして そのままー なまー ベジタリズムだよー 悲しくなったら 鍋にいれよう みんな好きだよ ベジタリズムだよー 伝えたいんだ 愛しているんだ 大好きなんだ ベジタリズムだよー かぶに ぽてと せろり ぱせり かぼちゃ とまと まとめてー なべ きって やいて むいて あげて にて むして そのままー ベジタリズムだよー なまー
