Medieval Posies
Hahahaha, I tried so hard not to spend time on writing a song because there are a lot of other things I wanted to work on for Sunday's get together. But then I found myself looking up medieval vegetables and flowers and wrote a list of rhyming words while eating breakfast. I couldn't think of anything while I was doing the dishes so I figured it was not going to happen. But then I sat down in the self awareness chamber, getting ready for bed, and I thought, what are all the awkward things that happen to a teenaged boy. And I thought about how his mom would get after him and then it all came flowing out. I can't stop laughing.
Mike's song challenge, Steph's scenario idea, Eli's chord's (second set, and transposed down a step), Karin's lyrics
Dm / / /, Dm / / C, Bb / / /, Bb / / C, ... Dm
1. Take a bath, and wash your hair
You're growing fast, your ankles bare
You've got a lovely spotted nose,
But don't sneeze on my veg'tables.
2. Just next to us a little lass,
Preparing nose gays, moving fast,
Beware the scent that's juxtapose,
You must protect the veg'tables.
3. You're much to shy to say hello,
She clicks her tongue and turns to go,
You're thinking that's she's very snobby.
Don't you sneeze on my kholrabi.
4. Stay inside our market stall,
All these Posies, quite a haul,
Crate of lilies, pot of primrose,
Please protect the veg'tables.
5. What's your problem, little mister?
Use a hanky like your sister.
Don't you sniff the yellow rose
Or you'll sneeze on my veg'tables.
Repeat 1 again.
