[Lyrics]
[Intro]
[Verse 1]
Quiet time passes, in preparation for summer,
The plastic sheeting has been removed from the greenhouse,
The sweetpotato seedlings have finished growing,
And are waiting to be planted.
[Pre-Chorus 1]
We received a lot again.
Sweet potato seedlings.
[Chorus 1]
Her name is,
Queen of May,
She brings us joy.
She waits for that time.
[Verse 2]
I say, “Three containers full,”
“We have no choice but to plant them.”
“We have no other option.”
She says, “Otherwise?”
[Pre-Chorus 2]
I say, “They’ll just wither away.”
She says, “What a waste.”
[Chorus 2]
Her name is,
Queen of May,
She brings us joy.
She waits for that time.
[Instrumental Solo]
[Verse 3]
She says, “Like a machine gun,”
“Let’s fire them in.”
I say, “Before that,
“Let’s harvest the potatoes.”
[Pre-Chorus 3]
She says, “May Queen,”
I say, “Queen of May, huh?”
[Chorus 3]
Her name is,
Queen of May,
She brings us joy.
She waits for that time.
[Bridge]
I say, “Big ones befitting a queen.”
“I hope we can harvest a lot,”
She says, “No problem,”
“Because they’re May Queen.”
[Final Chorus]
Her name is,
Queen of May,
She brings us joy.
She waits for that time.
