I planted a worm in the garden
And it grew so incredibly long
I planted a worm in the garden
Which planted the seeds of this song
It was longer than any snake I’ve seen
A hint of brown, a touch of green;
Now, I’ve planted a snake in the garden
And I’m waiting to see what occurs.
Singing: Have you seen the Muffin Man, the Muffin Man, the Muffin Man;
Have you seen the Muffin Man-
Spoken: Yes, but I ate him.
I met him at the Candy Store
That’s when I fell for…

Cold Mid-Winter Sun,
all the things you’ve done,
and all the things you’ve seen –
can you tell me why
you are not coloured green?
You’d break the golden rule,
and consider me a fool,
if you could only tell me why
you are not coloured green.
You are like a molten tangerine,
that’s a simile
from silly me,
but, I’d rather you were the colour,
of a peppermint cream.
Please tell me why
you are not coloured green.
Cold Mid-Winter Sun,
all the things you’ve done,
all the things you’ve seen,
do you know
that you are not coloured green??
I don’t want to be the rapper,
that you have to take the wrapper off;
don’t want to be coughed and sneezed at,
by the dude that only has
a wheeze and a cough;
I wanna be Singing
reading my Poetry;
Songs ‘And’ Poetry –
that’s SAPUC!
So, don’t you undermine me
with your rhymes of mediocrity,
I am a Sapper,
and I can SAP!
I will undermine you,
with my sentimental songs
and my Poetry TNT,
I am a Sapper,
and I can SAP!

Mama’s little soldier
went off to the war,
though he didn’t really know
what he was fighting for;
and when he came back,
he was in a box,
Mama visits him on Sundays,
and irons his socks.
I just found out
that my welly boot leaks
now I’ve got a wet foot;
well, fancy that!
