The Tallest Man on Earth – The Gardener

I sense a runner in the garden
Although my judgements known to fail
Once built a steamboat in a meadow
Cos I’d forgotten how to sail

I know the runner’s going to tell you
There ain’t no cowboy in my hair
So now he’s buried by the daisies
So I could stay the tallest man in your eyes, babe

I sense a spy up in the chimney
From all the evidence I’ve burned
I guess he’ll read it in the smoke now
And soon to ashes I’ll return

I know the spy is going to tell you
It’s not my flag up in the pole
So now he’s buried by the lilies
So I could stay forever more in your eyes, babe

I sense a leak inside my phone now
From all the lies I have told
I know he has your private number
And soon he’ll make that vicious call

I know the leak is going to tell you
There ain’t now puppy in your leash
So now he’ll fertilize the roses
So I could stay the king you see
In your eyes, babe (x2)

So now we’re dancing through the garden
And what a garden I have made
And now that death will grow my jasmine
I find it soothing I’m afraid

Now there is no need for suspicion
There ain’t no frog kissing your hand
I won’t be lying when I tell you
That I’m a gardner I’m a man
In your eyes babe (x3)

100% Open Pollinated, Non-Hybrid, Non-Genetically Modified Garden Seeds, for Perpetual True-to-Variety Vegetable Gardens

In today’s world, gardening is becoming more of a survival skill than a hobby. A lot of people are concerned about the increasing cost of food, as well as the lack of nutrition in commercially-grown vegetables and uncertainties about genetically-modified crops. Isn’t it time to try growing your own vegetables, using heirloom non-hybrid varieties so that you can save the seeds and re-plant year after year?

The Endless Garden non-hybrid seeds are hermetically sealed for long-term storage in a #10 can. You get 15 extra-large packets of garden seeds that have been specially selected so they are easy to grow and hardy in nearly all parts of the country. The seeds have a shelf life of 3 to 5 years (for best results, store the unopened can in the refrigerator or freezer). Best of all, you can save seeds from your produce and plant them again year after year with confidence.

The kit comes with instructions for planting, harvesting, and seed collecting. It comes with enough seeds to supply the yearly needs of a family of 4 (fresh and canned).

Kit Contents:

• BEANS: Blue Lake Bush, 2 packets, 1/2 lb.
• BEETS: Detroit Dark Red, 1/4 oz.
• CABBAGE: Golden Acre, 1/16 oz.
