There's a Pea On My Plate
guitar chords lyrics
There's a pea on my plate that
My Mother put there
She knows I don't like PEAS
but she doesn't care.
She says. "Come and try it, it's not the worst,
if you want some ice cream you must eat that pea first."
And I really did put the pea on my spoon,
but I made a mistake, my mouth closed too soon.
It slipped off the spoon and fell on to the floor,
Whoops!
My Mom said, "don't worry" she's got plenty more
There's a pea on my plate that
My Mother put there
PEAS make me vomit, but she doesn't care.
they're wrinkled and mushy and slimy and green
My Mother put there
PEAS make me vomit, but she doesn't care.
they're wrinkled and mushy and slimy and green
I wonder what happened that made her so mean.
There is really no telling how much this will hurt.
But I have to eat it 'cuz I want dessert.
It shouldn't have happened it's true I suppose,
somehow by mistake it got stuck up my nose.
There's a pea on my plate that
My Mother put there
She knows I'm not hungry
But she doesn't care.
I tell her if she makes me eat it,
I'll Die.
She says that she's sorry to hear that, bye-bye
The pea rolls on my plate,
forward and back,
it rolls round and round like a train on a track
faster and faster
it huffs and it puffs
till it rolls off the track and my Mom says,
"Enough"
There's a pea on my plate that
My Mother put there
It's cold and it's clammy,
but she doesn't care.
it's hard to believe that just one stupid pea
is all that stands between some ice cream and me
So we sit at the table just me and my Mom
My sister, my brother,my father they're gone
I hear the clock ticking, Now its' getting late
For me and My Mom and that PEA on MY Plate
There's a pea on my plate that
My Mother put there
She says that she really thinks she's being fair.
Just One little bite and this whole thing will stop.
And I can have ice cream with sprinkles on top.
She knows that she's got me she'll win there's no doubt.
She knows ice cream's something I can't live without.
She knows this is one fight she cannot lose.
(big sigh)
I say, "Skip the Ice Cream, May I be Excused."
