Seymour Krelbourn

So finally we meet you

This is an occasion

Let's toast it Up yours

Relax Canape

Let's talk turkey Sign here

And we'll book you on lecturing tours

Be a star And we're sending

Photographers Thursday

So get the plant ready

And wear a clean shirt

Just sign this release

Need a pen Aren't you thrilled

It's the cover of Life magazine

Dessert

I'm telling you son

It's a cinch to get ratings

The title is Marvin's

The concept is mine

The first weekly gardening

Show on a network

And you're gonna host it

You lucky kid sign

They say the meek shall inherit

You know the book doesn't lie

It's not a question of merit

It's not demand and supply

They say the meek gonna get it

And you're a meek little guy

You know the meek are gonna get

What's comin' to 'em by and by

My future's starting

I've got to let it

Stick with that plant and gee

My bank account will thrive

What am I saying No way

Forget it

It's much too dangerous

To keep that plant alive

I take these offers

That means more killing

Who knew success would come with messy

Nasty strings

I sign these contracts

That means I'm willing

To keep on doing bloody

Awful evil things

No No There's only so far you can bend

No No This nightmare must come to an end

No No You've got no alternative

Seymour old boy

Though it means you'll be

Broke again and unemployed

It's the only solution

It can't be avoided

The vegetable must be destroyed

But then there's Audrey

Lovely Audrey

If life were tawdry

And impov'rished as before

She might not like me

She might not want me

Without my plant

She might not love me anymore

They say the meek shall inherit

Where do I sign

You know the book doesn't lie

Right on the line

It's not a question of merit

That'll do fine

It's not demand and supply

This copy's mine

You'll make a fortune we swear it

If on this fact you rely

Bye bye So long

You know the meek are gonna

Get what's comin' to 'em

You know the meek are gonna

Get what's comin' to 'em

You know the meek are gonna

Get what's comin' to 'em

By and by
