LONG LIVE THE BLOOMKEEPER! (Metal)
[Verse 1] At first light breaks when the dew still gleams, He walks the rows with impossible dreams. One hand points where the tendrils should creep, The other stands watch while the flowers sleep. No leaf goes unchecked... No bud left behind... Every wandering vine... Falls into line! [Chorus] WHO KEEPS THE GLORIES? THE BLOOMKEEPER! WHO GUARDS THE VINES? THE BLOOMKEEPER! WHO FEARS NO CRICKET? THE BLOOMKEEPER! (The Bloomkeeper!) (Massive drum hit) [Verse 2] A cricket once marched with a terrible grin... It thought it was finally sneaking right in. The Bloomkeeper whispered, “Not on my shift...” THWACK! The village still tells... Of the cricket that slipped. (laugh it off) [Chorus] LONG! LIVE! THE BLOOMKEEPER! LONG! LIVE! THE BLOOMKEEPER! Protector of Purple! Guardian of Green! No finer gardener... Has ever been seen! (LONG LIVE!) [Verse 3] Who trains the runners? THE BLOOMKEEPER! Who studies trichomes? THE BLOOMKEEPER! Who knows every node? THE BLOOMKEEPER! Who worries one leaf... Might shade one bloom? THE BLOOMKEEPER! (hey!) [Bridge] Some chase dragons... Some seek gold... Some wear armor... Brave and bold... But legends whisper... Soft and low... Of one who helps... Morning glories grow... (ooh-oh) [Chorus] LONG LIVE THE BLOOMKEEPER! KEEPER OF THE BLOOMS! WATCHER OF THE LATTICE! SCOURGE OF THE CRICKET HORDES! MASTER OF THE WANDERING VINES! THE LEAVES SHALL NEVER WILT... WITHOUT INVESTIGATION!! (Everybody roars) LONG LIVE! LONG LIVE! LONG LIVE THE BLOOMKEEPER!! [Verse 4] Now every hero needs someone wise... To roll their eyes with a smile... She stands inside by the back porch door... She’s heard these words a thousand times before... “I’ll be inside... ...in just a minute...” The village laughs... ’Cause they all know... That means... Another thirty minutes to go! (laughing) [Verse 5] She peeks outside... He’s frozen still... Inspecting one suspicious leaf... With absolute will... She softly sighs... And starts to grin... “He’s talking... ...to the flowers... ...again.” (again) [Chorus] Raise your mugs! And let it ring! For she protects... The Bloomkeeping King! Not with swords... Nor spear... Nor shield... But laughing... Every trip... To the field! (hooray) [Bridge] Honey... Are you coming inside? (Huge dramatic pause) In... ...just... ...a minute... (Thirty minutes later...) [Final Chorus] WHO WATCHES THE BLOOMKEEPER? THE ROYAL OBSERVER! WHO KNOWS HE’S STILL OUTSIDE? THE ROYAL OBSERVER! WHO LAUGHS EVERY SINGLE TIME? THE ROYAL OBSERVER! WHO HEARS... “I’LL BE IN... ...JUST A MINUTE!” EVERY DAY?! THE ROYAL OBSERVER! (royal observer!)
