"Grow For Me"

Aw, Two-ie. Audrey and Mr. Mushnik just met you, but I've been going through this with you for weeks. Grow and wilt, spurt and flop. Are you sickly, little plant, or are you just plain stubborn? What is it you want? What is it you need?

I've given you sunshine
I've given you dirt
You've given me nothing
But heartache and hurt

I'm begging you sweetly
I'm down on my knees
Oh please grow for me

I've given you plant food
And water to sip
I've given you pot ash
You've given me zip

Oh God how I missed you
Oh pod how you tease
Now please grow for me

I've given you southern exposure
To get you to thrive
I've pinched you back hard like I'm s'posed to
You're barely alive

I've tried you at levels of moisture
From desert to mud
I've given you prolytes and mineral supplements
What do want from me what

Ouch! Damn roses, damn thorns. Clumsy me. Look what I did, Two-ie. Hey, you're opening up! What made you do that?

I think I know what made you do that. Well, I guess a few drops couldn't hurt. As long as you make a habit out of it or anything.

I've given you sunlight
I've given you rain
Looks like you're not happy
Unless I open a vein

I'll give you a few drops
If that'll appease
Now please
Oh oh oh please
Grow for me
