Wise words from the departing
Eat your greens,
especially broccoli
Remember to
say "thank you"
for the things
you haven't had

By working
the soil
we cultivate
the sky
hm-m
We embrace
vegetable
kingdom

The death of
your father,
the death of
your mother
Is something
you prepare for
All your life
All their life

Wise words from the departing:
The death of the mother, and the death of the father,
Is something you prepare for
For all of their lives,
For all of your life.

Wise words from the departing:
Eat your greens, especially broccoli.
Wear sensible shoes,
And always say "thank you."
Especially for the things
You never had.

Wise words from the departing:
By working the soil
We cultivate the sky,
And enter the vegetable kingdom
Of our own heaven.
By working the soil
By working the soil
We cultivate good manners.
We used to say "please", and "thank you."
Especially for the things
We never had.

Wise words from the departing:
Eat your greens, especially broccoli.
And always say "thank you,"
Especially for broccoli.
