Earthworms
Words by Scott Hudson, 1996

(Tune: Farmer in the Dell)

Earthworms eat dead plants
Earthworms eat dead ants.
But, without a leg to move,
An earthworm cannot dance.

Earthworms mix the soil
And help reduce the toil.
They congregate and aerate
Without the use of oil.

Earthworms fertilize
And help us realize
The full potential of the soil
Without a compromise.

Earthworms decompose
Dead matter (like a rose)
And thus they help enrich the soil
In the habitat it chose.
