lyrics

I see you stretched across the barren fields, deserted farms
Suffocating weaker life below
You’re just a pest so I can hardly guess
Why the southern farmer ever let you grow

Your growth’s deceiving as we never see you move
Though you measure out an extra foot each day
Time on your hands, patience is your secret plan
For mother nature to reclaim the USA

Kudzu, what are you? Plant or beast?—I’m so confused
Spread your verdant colors far and wide
Roots bound to the ground, how can you still move around?
Feeding off the powerlines; feeding off my jealous mind
Going where your mighty vines decide

Some folks are happy never leaving their home town
While other tend to migrate day by day
I fall between so contagiously I’ve caught your green
Envious of how you live both ways

I am contented by the comforts of my home
But if I sit still my soul won’t let me be
I’m often wishin’ that I had your disposition
So I could settle down but still be free
