I saw the plant out up -- on the ground

I like my plants to grow there, you know.

And a -- lso up in the trees. __

The trees are filled with plants in a way.

And in a way, they __ are plants. __

And I, I like to eat trees.

Oh, yes. At least I eat them in grams. __

I like to eat some -- thing aw -- ful strange

like pick -- _ les co -- vered in hearts.

But not an -- i -- mal hearts, yuck, you know

I pre -- fer art -- i -- choke hearts. __

They're heart -- y, yes, and they're good for me

but blood they do not ever pump. __

I'd like to see some -- thing in the trees

grow -- ing pears or may -- be plums. __

I thought I could eat all of that food

but I guess I made __ _ too much.

As it's just veg't -- a -- bles, then, I guess.

If I'm in doubt, I could mulch. __

You see, you can com -- post e -- v'ry -- thing

and it's eas -- y when its veg. __

You might not want to com -- post your friend

or e -- ne -- my o -- ver here. __

I thought the worm and de -- comp would do

to hide the smell of __ _ my meth.

That lab is mak -- ing me pro -- fit, yes,

but it is al -- so a mess. __

I thought I could switch to herbs, you know,

but it they just le -- gal -- ized.

So I'll keep mak -- ing my meth, out there,

at least while I still have eyes. __
