Plant a Radish

Plant A Radish - The Fantasticks

Written by：The Fantasticks

Plant a radish

Get a radish

Never any doubt

That's why I love vegetables

You know what you're about

Plant a turnip

Get a turnip

Maybe you'll get two

That's why I love vegetables

You know that they'll come through

They're dependable

They're befriendable

They're the best pal a parent's ever known

While with children

It's bewilderin'

You don't know until the seed is nearly grown

Just what you've sown

So plant a carrot

Get a carrot

Not a Brussels sprout

That's why I love vegetables

You know what you're about

Life is merry

If it's very

Vegetarian

A man who plants a garden

Is a very happy man

Hey

Plant a beanstalk

Get a beanstalk

Just the same as Jack

Then if you don't like it

You can always take it back

But if your issue

Doesn't kiss you

Then I wish you luck

For once you've planted children

You're absolutely stuck

Every turnip green

Every kidney bean

Every plant grows according to the plot

While with progeny

It's hodge podgenee

For as soon as you think you know what kind you've got

It's what they're not

So

Plant a cabbage

Get a cabbage

Not a sauerkraut

That's why I love vegetables

You know what you're about

Life is merry

If it's very

Vegetarian

A man who plants a garden

Is a very happy man

A vegitari

Very merry

Vegetarian
