Bamboo
A gardener's got a digging stick,?
A plantsman's got a rare breed it’s only hardy by half
And the Merry Men of gumwood

On the Spanish Plains inside their botanic brains
They hide their ruddy temperature records
But we make do with an old bamboo
And everyone applauds!?
Me ol' bamboo, me ol' bamboo you better never bother with me ol' bamboo
