A Mandrake’s Lament

Lyrics

Use extreme care when you're working with me If you hear me scream, you will die But please don't insult my dignity By doing dumb things that provoke me to cry I'm a helpful plant; I can cure petrification And I'm pretty cute, too So before you pull me out of the ground Before I make that fateful sound I have one thing to ask of you 'Cause it's not easy being a mandrake baby You're driving me crazy, so at least wear earmuffs that aren't pink and fluffy I'm just a sapling, so pleasе consider my feelings Before you rеpot me, those ugly earmuffs have got to go Did you ever think that the reason I scream Is 'cause your earmuffs make me want to kill you? They hurt my eyes more than I hurt your ears And Madam Sprout, you know it's true Just take them off and I swear I'll shut up I don't wanna be a pain But before you pull me out of the ground Before I make that fateful sound I have one thing I gotta explain Yeah, it's not easy being a mandrake baby You're driving me crazy, so at least wear earmuffs that aren't pink and fluffy I'm just a sapling, so please consider my feelings Before you repot me, those ugly earmuffs have got to go They've got to go They've got to go Everybody, now! Badadada … Ugly earmuffs have got to go It's not easy being a mandrake baby You're driving me crazy, so at least wear earmuffs that aren't pink and fluffy I'm just a sapling, so please consider my feelings Before you repot me, those ugly earmuffs have got to go Yeah, oh, they've got to go They've got to go Those ugly earmuffs have got to go
