What are you about?

In the past, when you were no more a babe,
father brought his young wife

But not neighbors.

Your was with child,
And she an unusual appetite.
She admired my garden,
And she told your father
she wanted more than anything,
In the world, was...
Greens, greens, but greens:
Parsley, peppers, and celery,
Asparagus and and
and lettuce-!
He said, "All right,"
But it wasn't, quite,
'Cause I caught him in the
In my one night!
He was me,
me,
Rooting my rutabaga,
my arugula and
Ripping up the
My champion! My favorite!-
I have laid a spell on him
there,
I could turned him into stone
Or a dog...
Or a chair...
But I let him have the

In return, however,
I said, "Fair is
You can let me the baby
That wife will bear.
And call it square."

I had a

No. But, you had a sister.

Where is

She's now!
And you'll never her,

I'm not mollified."
And I laid a spell on them-
You, too,
That your tree
Would be a barren one...

How you do that?

And when mother died,
father deserted you.
Your father was no father so why you be?

So there's no more
And no more scenes
And my garden
You see my nectarines!
But I'm you the same

Don't ever ever
Mess around my greens!
