Isaac Adni - The Pondweed Song lyrics

I got a pond in my garden as you might well know It's where I keep my newts and I watch them grow But there is only one thing in my pond With which I have formed an emotional bond Pondweed, it grows from seed I said pondweed, yeah yeah And I water my pond weed every day 'cause I know it likes to be treated that way 'cause I'm fine with eating animals But calling plants weeds It's just out of my limits It makes my seethe And I know that my pondweed hates it too 'cause when I say weed it turns a sickly hue Sickly hue, Sickly hue, Oh what would you do If I called you a weed and you did not want me to So why is the English language so discriminatory Because we refer to pondweed with words derogatory So why are some plants weeds and other plants plants 'cause these sort of things do not happen by chance The use of the word weed should really be banned But I still have to use it for you to understand And I've said the word weed multiple times Which in my pondweed's opinion is a heinous crime 'cause I'm fine with eating animals But calling plants weeds It's just out of my limits It makes my seethe And I know that my pondweed hates it too 'cause when I say weed it turns a sickly hue Sickly hue, Sickly hue, Oh what would you do If I called you a weed and you did not want me to Plant life with the intellectual capacity of a flip-flop Can still know when it's getting ripped off Be nice to your pond weed, it photosynthesises And without photosynthesis the world would be in a crisis So don't call it a weed Call it a plant Pondplant, pondplant Pondplant, pondplant 'cause I'm fine with eating animals But calling plants weeds It's just out of my limits It makes my seethe And I know that my pondweed hates it too 'cause when I say weed it turns a sickly hue Sickly hue, Sickly hue, Oh what would you do If I called you a weed and you did not want me to If I called you a weed and you did not want me to
