Canzoni Di Natale - Percy, The Puny Poinsettia lyrics
Percy the puny poinsettia Is hanging his bloom in dismay If they had just kept him wetta He'd be a houseplant today Folks liked the other plants betta Now he's alone on the shelf Even a plant with no uncle or aunt Shouldn't spend Christmas Day by himself Holiday shoppers would stop by the counter And pick up a plant to take home Until one by one all his friends were adopted And Percy was left all alone Percy the puny poinsettia Is hanging his bloom in dismay If they had just kept him wetta He'd be a houseplant today Folks liked the other plants betta Now he's alone on the shelf Even a plant with no uncle or aunt Shouldn't spend Christmas Day by himself Then into the store on the night before Christmas Came a poor little girl who was cryin' But when she saw Percy her eyes opened wide And she said "Can I please make him mine?" Now Percy the puny poinsettia Is standing beside Mr. Tree His leaves have never been redda, He's as proud as a flower can be Somebody made him feel betta, Rescued him off of the shelf Even a plant with no uncle or aunt Shouldn't spend Christmas Day by himself
