about

There’s a lot of Japanese Knotweed growing along the canal near my house. Some friends have it in their garden too. Its indestructability has always impressed me. And it has always amused me that such an invasive weed is called knotweed. I was delighted to find out that it has many other names including donkey rhubarb. I think we made this by recording the singing first and adding accompaniment, ie backwards.

lyrics

They call it Japanese knotweed But I call it Japanese isweed Because it is weed It’s not not weed It’s knotweed It is weed. Oh yes it is weed It’s not not weed It is weed It’s knotweed.
