Lord knows
everyone loves the Rose
even though the thorns stick
the rose they will pick
Fresh growing peppermint
I could fall in a patch
on purpose no accident
I know I wouldn't come out
smelling like a rose
but I would have a smiling nose
I actually wouldn't mind finding
where peppermint grows
I could dump peppermint
in any stinky river that flows
Where's a great big bunch
I can brew it in my tea for lunch
A big bag of peppermint candy
would simply be a dandy
Escuse me while I trip
any kind would come in handy
God gave us the rose
but peppermint is better
for the nose
This is just the way it goes
