The Lads – The Cactus Song lyrics

[Chorus]
There are five cacti on my window sill
And a bonsai tree living happily together
In any kind of weather, they get along

There are five cacti on my window sill
And a bonsai tree living happily together
In any kind of weather, they get along

[Verse 1]
At first I was surprised
To see how they were faring
With all those shapes and sizes
You'd think there'd be some staring
But they didn't seem to mind
That some were much too tall
No condescending looks were cast
At those who were still small, oh!

[Chorus]
There are five cacti on my window sill
And a bonsai tree living happily together
In any kind of weather, they get along

[Verse 2]
Won't catch these prickly friends of mine
Comparing shades of green
Or having silly arguments
About differences between them
On the whole they're quite accepting
When all is said and done
They're a group of individuals
Reaching out towards the sun

[Chorus]
There are five cacti on my window sill
And a bonsai tree living happily together
In any kind of weather, they get along
Yeah!

On the whole cacti are predominately non-judgmental. Fleshy scent, cactaceae.

[Chorus]
There are five cacti on my window sill
And a bonsai tree living happily together
In any kind of weather, they get along
Yeah!

Five! Five cacti on my window sill
And a bonsai tree living happily together
In any kind of weather, they get along
They get along, they get, yeah, yeah!

[Outro]
(Grow together, grow together)
(Grow together, grow together)
Ebony and ivory living in harmony
Ebony and ivory living in harmony
