you call me a weed, you hit me with spray
you know I will come back, I won't go away
your lawn is now covered, beginning to end
you're losing your patience, you're at your wit's end

one of these days, you're gonna look down and find
the lawn that you wanted is way far behind
you gotta work me harder, but not till you faint
oh yeah, trim me, before it's too late....

weed me right
weed me right
call the weed guys, maybe they'll do the job right

yeah, I think you're a fool, why don't you grow rice
just throw it in paddies, and fill it just nice
you can't have it both ways, I'm determined to live
my roots are expanding, it's heartache I give

one of these days, you're gonna fall way behind
I'm growing like crazy, I'm blowing your mind
you gotta work me harder, and cut me to size,
with chemical agents, and then fertilize

weed me right
weed me right
call the weed guys, maybe they'll do the job right..
oh weed me right

I'm growing my leaves, I'm stronger each day
a weedeater's palace, but I won't go away
a hoe and a raker just make me go low
I've put down my root here and no, I won't go..

weed me right weed me right
weed me right weed me right
call the lawn guys maybe they'll do the job right

oh oh weed me right
