+ Show full styles

[SUNG BY OPERATIC TENOR, BOOMING OPERA INTRO] Five dollar plants... five dollar dreams... Spider plants, snake plants, ZZs in plastic things… Set up my table at six oh two… Sold a jade to a lady... who said "I’ll come back for two." Used to trade pothos for tacos and change… Thought “rare plants” were a scam or strange… But then I heard… whispers in the breeze… Of something called… Monstera Albo Leaves… White streaks… so rare… so bold… It sold for what?! TWO HUNDRED?… in mold?! And there I saw it… glowing on my screen… Palm… Street… dot com… a fever dream… A jungle bazaar of digital flair… A war for cuttings floating in air… Anthuriums named like forbidden spells… “Crystal,” “Waroc”… what is this hell?! [soft, awestruck] But maybe… it’s heaven… Maybe… it’s fate… This humble plant bro might elevate… [harp gliss opening] I click… create… account… and wait… [OUTRO — gentle whisper from chorus] He joined Palm Street… There’s no escape… Your wishlist grows… And so does the stake…
