How Things Grow
I came to the farm to see how things grow
And I learned some things I didn't know
Plants can grow high
Plants can grow low
Some grow above the ground
Some grow below
For instance a tomato doesn't grow like a potato
Tomato: Tomatoes push and shove to get up above
Ernie: Meanwhile a potato doesn't grow like a tomato
Potato: Potatoes never show, we stay down below
Plants can grow high
Plants can grow low
Some grow above the ground
Some grow below
Now if you want a lettuce
Lettuce: I'd tell you where to get us
We always can be found right above the ground
Ernie: Look high for a zucchini 'cause they're never very teeny
Beet: But if you want a beet, look under your feet
Plants can grow high
Plants can grow low
Some grow above the ground
Some grow below
Ernie: Maybe next time you'll see something you'll know
Tomato etc: If it grew above the ground
Potato etc: Or it grows below!
