We Can Make Soup

Music and lyrics by Paul Nordquist
From the album, "Garden Variety"

Oh, what can we do with dandelion greens,
a potato, a squash, a carrot, a leek, and an onion?
We can make soup!
And what can we do with guests on their way
When we don't even know how many people are comin'?
We can make soup!

We can make some soup
Everybody, we can make some soup
Plenty of soup to feed the whole group
We can make some soup now

What can you do with some leftover pasta,
frozen green beans, garlic, cider, and prunes?
You can make soup!
What can you do when you're all snowed in
And everybody's tired of watching old cartoons?
You can make soup!

We can make some soup
Everybody, we can make some soup
Yes indeed, that's what we need
We can make some soup now

You start the fire
I'll get the magic soup stone
... Has anybody seen my magic stone?

What can space station astronauts do
When they're tired of sucking astronaut food out of tubes?
They can make soup!
Oh, what can we do with the thing in the back of the fridge?
It's been sitting there and no one is sure what it is.
We can make soup!

We can make some soup
Everybody, we can make some soup
Plenty of soup to feed the whole group
We can make some soup now

We can make some soup
Everybody, we can make some soup
Yes indeed, that's what we need
We can make some soup now
