Goodnight little house plant asleep on the sill I'll shut the shades so you don't catch a chill And tomorrow in the mornin' for a breakfast we two Will have ham and eggs for me and nitrogen for you Goodnight little house plant, tucked in your clay pot Make sure that you don't catch the Huntington's rot Be careful, little house plant, stay away from them bees You know that they may carry a social disease Goodnight little house plant, little house plant goodnight Here's your glass of water; should I leave on the light? Tomorrow we'll talk of the things that we did I love you little house plant; who needs women and kids?
