plant watering day

So every saturday in our apartment it's plant watering day. My roommate and I made this pact because in our previous apartment in college, we managed to kill all of our plants through the perseverance of sheer neglect. When we got here, we knew things would be different. We decided to take better care of our plants and our pets and so far it's going smashingly.

Somewhere along the way plant watering day became a phrase that we sang to this David Shrigley poem that is performed by John Shankie on David Shrigley's worried noodles album. It's called "A Song" and I've linked it below. (BTW if you don't know who david shrigley is, he is a god. Links to the worried noodles site and his website).



Today at work I decided to write the full parody to this song, about plant watering day. I give you the full parody below (it would help if you sang it with the tune of the song):

Plant watering day
Watering the plants
Break out the water
Do a little dance

Each plant is special
In its unique way
If you forget that
I'll punch you in the face

Plants are so great
Changing the air
We should always water them
It is only fair

When our plants die
Let's not have regrets
About how we care for them
We are in their debt

They give us flowers
and lots of growth
When we bought them from the shop
We took an oath

They reduce noise
and lower our stress
We still want our plants
to look their very best

So don't forget the day
Remember the plan
Plants needs their water
To increase their life span

DON'T FORGET TO WATER YOUR PLANTS
