Nebuchadnezzer

nebuchadnezzar lie down
  your hanging gardens all around.

  nebuchadnezzar  can i buy some seeds?
  my backyard is full of weeds.

  nebuchadnezzar your dreaming to long,
  now my yard has grown into babylon.


  nebu chad nezzar... 
  
 lve heard that you have a green thumb,
 for the flower and the bee succumb.

 nebuchadnezzar your worried head
  has no roots now your dead.

  nebuchadnezzar planted in the ground
  still forever without a sound.
