Grow for Me Songtext

von Alan Menken

I've given you sunshine
I've given you dirt
You've given me nothin'
But heartache and hurt

I'm beggin' you sweetly
I'm down on my knees
Oh please
Grow for me

I've given you plant food
And water to sip
I've given you pot ash
You given me zip

Oh God, how I missed you?
Oh pod, how you tease?
Now please
Grow for me

I've given you Southern Exposure
To get you to thrive
I've pinched you back hard, like I'm supposed to
You're barely alive

I've tried you at levels of moisture
From desert to mud
I've given you grow lights and mineral supplements
What do you want from me, blood?

I've given you sunlight
I've given you rain
Looks like you're not happy
'Less I open a vein

I'll give you a few drops
If that'll appease
Now please, oh, oh, oh, please
Grow for me
