I Went To A Garden Party
Feb 12, 2020
I went to a garden party
To show off my new-found fame
The peas were green with envy
The beets gave me no acclaim
The carrots never showed their faces
The potatoes snubbed me too
The cantaloupe were disgraces
So were the honeydew
The celery were insufferable
The radish’s words were sharp
The tomatoes all avoided me
And hid under a tarp
The lettuce shrugged their shoulders
Which I didn’t know they had
The onions were just flaky
Seemed like everyone was mad
Well, you can’t please everybody
I suppose it’s just my breed
I feel like such an unloved one
All because I am a weed
Inspired by Rick Nelson’s song Garden Party:
