I get trod on every day

I'm green but I'm as thin as a piece of hay

Some kids think I'm edible

But I'm actually incredible

I'm always hanging out with dirt 

But then some kid gets hurt 

All they do is cry 

Then they finally go bye-bye

Balls always squash me 

Then I'm the size of a pea

Oh and dirt, he's still my mate

He just wants his name to be Nate

All the heavy drops of rain make me suffer in pain

That's all I have to say

Because it's the end of the day 

As the lights turn off – beep

It's time to go to sleep
