Lyrics Grow for Me - The Theatreland Chorus

Grow for Me

I’ve given you sunshine
I’ve given you dirt
You’ve given me nothing
But heartache and hurt
I’m beggin' 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
potash
You’ve given me zip
Oh God, how I mist 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 ta
You’re barely alive
I’ve tried you at levels of moisture
From desert to mud
I’ve given you grow-lights
And mineral supplements
What do you want from me, blood?
I’ve given you sunlight
I’ve given you rain
Looks like you’re not happy
'Less I open a vein
I’ll give you a few drops
If that’ll appease
Now please, oh please grow for me!
