Aubergine means eggplant. It is not pronounced the way that we sing it in this song however...
lyrics
Aubergine
*Oh Aubergine, do you know what you mean?
Do you know what you mean to me, my Aubergine.
There’s an Elephant in the room, but he don’t know what to do.
It seems he lost his shoes.
He’s drinking olive juice, but it doesn’t come from you,
He’s broken down, He’ll come around, but what’s the use.
**
He’d just like to forget, all those things He said.
And go right on loving you.
But it hasn’t happened yet, and I’m willing to bet,
It’s not something he can choose.
Bridge:} {
Do you know, what you mean?
***
He needs a lot of help so he can help himself.
He wonders how this got confused.
If you could just reach out and forgive all this doubt,
He’d love to make it up to you.
