Instead of meat I eat veggies and pussy
I like them both fresh, like them both juicy
I ride my bicycle to work instead of a car
All of my groceries are divided by weight and stored in glass jars (Yeah)
Got my reusable bag
That swag, my flex, my flag
Zero waste, that is my jam
Save fuel and sell your truck
The karma comes for free and so does luck
All aboard the green Titanic
Let's sail the world and then cruise the Atlantic
No ice in the way, no need to panic
All the signs are there, let's go organic

Oh, when you eat your veggies
Baby, think of me
Little kitty, don't you know that
Being green is cool?

Know that being green is hot (It's hot)
Being green is cool (It's cool)
Eat your salad, save the planet
Being green is sexy as fuck
Being green is hot (It's hot)
Being green is cool (It's cool)
Eat your salad, save the planet
Being green is sexy as you

Ring, ring, God damn, it's an exam (Let's go)
Get your trash can, no back-up plan and sort through it
Bend over, then jiggle that peach (Ayy)
You recyclin' while I'm loving those cheeks (That's sweet)
I'm a beast instead of a killer, forget the hot dogs (What)
'Cause my sausage is bigger
Three, two, one, all the girls go eco
If you want your man's tongue longer than a gecko's

Oh, when you eat your veggies
Baby, think of me
Little kitty, don't you know that
Being green is cool?

Know that being green is hot (It's hot)
Being green is cool (It's cool)
Eat your salad, save the planet
Being green is sexy as fuck
Being green is hot (It's hot)
Being green is cool (It's cool)
Eat your salad, save the planet
Being green is sexy as you

Know that being green is hot (It's hot)
Being green is cool (It's cool)
Eat your salad, save the planet
Being green is sexy as fuck
Being green is hot (It's hot)
Being green is cool (It's cool)
Eat your salad, save the planet
Being green is sexy as

Na-na-na-na-na-na

I see televoting being mentioned, but I can't see a lot of people (or anybody) voting for it. Even if a short haha moment happens, the number is not going to be dialed. It's not that funny, it's not that outrageous, it's not even that trashy, it's just not.

Latvia's recurring theme is to put something "iconic" forward, that ultimately ends up in the trash bin of semifinals

In the swimming pool, always stayin' cool
I already told this here : I love this.
Sure, lyrics are questionable at large, but musically this is so upbeat, fresh and fun, and i gotta say that their live performance adds even more, you can definitely see they're having fun. Also, to my eyes this is not a joke entry, funny on purpose yes, but joke song, no. It's a good funk song which is funny, not a The Story of Fire saga-rip off or a repetitive loop where you can't see the actual singer... Well yeah i'm a little biased since that's one kind of music i listen to, but i really think this will go big on televote.

:12: and this will, surely, remain until the end of ESC 2022.

With this kind of songs and staging you either love it or hate it. When I read the titke of the song Ai already thought this will be some random novelty joke entry. I was let down and I want my money back! This didn’t work for me, but thank you Latvia, we always need something silly and polarising in the line-up, I’m not against… I stand one or two stupid songs more than a bunch of plastic formulaic “current” pop radiofriendly stuff, or X Factor alike ballads.

I don't mean to sound offended (I'm really not) but this is such straight man comedy and it makes me cringe

God, is this the usual standards for Supernova? This is my first time watching the final. It's so bad, just like one of the finalists' song. I lost close to 40mins of my life that I will never get back. Nothing is good. It's either bland or plain unlistenable.

I can't believe there are quite a few joke entries in the finals.
God, I was actually laughing out loud at "He, She, You & Me". #ijustcan't

Back to the winning song, they deserves a :0:. I don't like to eat pu**y and I prefer meat.
And also, if Latvia wants a joke entry, they should have chosen Bujans, at least I really laughed at the silliness of it and it was actually pretty well-performed.

So hoped for Ritch Itch or BAD (One of my overall favorites of the season so far) here, so a bit disappointed with the result ofc... although better than Aminta, my expected winner

Ok the song is horrible, let's expect another non-qual for LV and it will be fully deserved!
I know its not a good criteria, but the only plus to me is how sexy Roberts Memmēns has become in this performance. o_O

3/12

Urgh, sorry but when I listen to this "song" I don´t wanna eat salad or anything but instead just throw up. xpuke

For me this is just a weird collection of sounds sung by unlikable and wannabe cool guys, and the lyrical content is also just a big NOPE from me.

I`m sorry :lv: but this is a clear :0: from me .(n)

7 points, one of the ones I wanted to win. I think Latvia can finally qualify with the right staging.

A 3. I think when a song is funny you have two options being extreme/ridiculous and beyond or counterbalance the funny in the song with a more 'serious'/ less clowny performance.
Mixing a kinda funny song with a wannabe comic act is cringy.

I've seen several people comment on how this song has good "straight man" appeal, meanwhile I (a non-straight woman) can't get enough of it!

This song makes me love McDonald's cheeseburgers even more and actually when I heard it, I was like "Ok, where's the nearest McD?" :p

Straight men & non-straight women are very much alike:lol:
