I went to diner and ordered a tasty burrito
Aroma of Mexican food tickled my nose
There came my order
I chewed it and taste of the soap in my mouth, yes, arose
(Chorus I:)
My, my, my, cilantro!
Why, why, why, cilantro?
I can see that herb sure is no good for me
It made my burrito to taste like soap, yes indeed!
I went to Thai restaurant and had me some rice and chicken
The same taste of soap was so imminent it made me puke
Oh, coriander...
The bane of South Asian cuisine - my stomach it shook
(Chorus II:)
My, my, my, cilantro!
Why, why, why, cilantro?
It spoiled my meal, that herb that's a true devil's deal
It turned up my stomach and I felt I'd get killed now for real.
Instrumental
Oh, please, dear EU!
Legalize pot and outlaw the cilantro, that's deal!
Chorus II
It turned up my stomach and I felt I'd get killed now for real!
