The Plant Song

(Sung to Fireworks by Katy Perry)

If you only knew what a plant could do
You would tell everyone
About the things you knew
If you only knew how the roots they hold
A plant in its place
And also stores its food
 

If you only knew of how those leaves can be
Oh so important for you and me
If you only knew what a stem can do
Hold up the leaves, the flowers, fruits too

If you know these things you'll see
What plants will do to live and breathe

Chorus

'cause baby that's how they work
All the parts have their quirks
Each one does its own own own
Thing to help the plant grow grow grow

Repeat Chorus

When the sun does shine then a plant will grow
But it will all begin with the seed you sow
While it's underground it will stay safe from cold
Protected by its leaf and by its coat
 

And when the seed comes out from below the ground
A seedling it’s called and will be found
And then it grows into a plant
Which makes more seeds to start ‘nother round
 

Of life that keeps the plants around
And gives us air to breathe somehow

Chorus

'cause baby that's how they work
All the parts have their quirks
Each one does its own own own
Thing to help the plant grow grow grow

Repeat Chorus
