Seymour Krelbourn
So finally we meet you
This is an occasion
Let's talk
Up yours
Relax
Canape
Cigarette
Let's talk turkey
Sign here
And we'll book you on
lecturing tours
Yes darling
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 tellin' 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's
gonna get it
And you 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 sayin'
No way forget it
It's much too dangerous
to keep that plant alive
I take these offers
That means more killin'
Who knew success would
come with messy nasty strings
I sign these contracts
That means I'm willin'
To keep on doing bloody
awful evil things
No no
There's only so far
I 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 veg'table
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
Where do I sign
Right on the line
That'll do fine
This copy's mine
Couldn't go wrong
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
