It's All About Fungi to the tune of "Walking on Sunshine" by Katrina 
and the Waves

To Jason, with best wishes


Young Neville Longbottom, preparing for his first year at Hogwarts, 
peruses his new texts.  Although most are confusing or intimidating, 
he finds "1000 Magical Herbs and Fungi" to be a great read.  Elated 
by his newfound knowledge, he sings:

I used to think I was just hopeless, and books were a bore,
But now I have found this great textbook by Phyllida Spore.
Now every time I go in the garden, I dig in the ground,
'Cause I can't believe all the plants that are lurking around.

It's all about fungi (whoa-oh)
It's all about fungi (whoa-oh)
It's all about fungi (whoa-oh)
And how 'bout those herbs!
They're allright now, hey how 'bout those herbs!

I used to think mushrooms were toadstools, now I know that's not true,
And I used to think hellebore was an Icelandic fondue.
Now I know asphodel isn't that which makes hem'roids go 'way,
And I'll never fear shrivelfigs, spiting what Gran has to say.

It's all about fungi (whoa-oh)
It's all about fungi (whoa-oh)
It's all about fungi (whoa-oh)
And how 'bout those herbs!
They're allright now, hey how 'bout those herbs!
Oh, yeah, hey, how 'bout those herbs!

It's all about fungi.
It's all about fungi.

They are alive, they are my love, I'm in an an herbal atmosphere.
They are alive, they are my love, I'm in an an herbal atmosphere.
I got fungi, baby, oh, oh, yeah, I got fungi, baby, oh!
It's all about fungi (whoa-oh)
It's all about fungi (whoa-oh)
It's all about fungi (whoa-oh)

And how 'bout those herbs! hey, all right now,
And how 'bout those herbs! I say it, say it, say it again, now
And how 'bout those herbs! hey, yeah, now
(fade to end)
