THE HAPPY WORM SONG

Copyright Melissa Jordan 04/27/2004 Lyrics only.
Sung to the tune of "My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean".

Verse I.
My Earthworms lie over the counter.
My earthworms lie under the sink.
My earthworms are speedy as lightening.
To see them I'd better not blink.

CHORUS:
I'll feed you, feed you, feed you,
Oh, Wormies, a treat.

Verse II.
My earthworms are with me at the office.
My earthworms are with me at school.
My earthworms come with me on vacation.
Have you ever seen anything so cool?!

CHORUS

Verse III.
My earthworms are so busy eating
soft mellon, eggshells, and kale.
In 6 to 8 weeks, dear wormies,
I'll harvest your poop in a pail.

CHORUS

Verse IV.
My earthworms are so busy mating
they won't leave each other alone.
Within 3 months, there'll be babies:
time for a much bigger home.

CHORUS

Verse V.
Dear Eathworms, I wish to thank you.
You've kept my tax dollars from the dump.
Your castings have nourished my garden
and made my heart beat thumpety thump.

CHORUS
