Bubblemath - Get a Lawn lyrics

Music: Albinson/Esbensen

Lyrics: Esbensen

Once we squatted, lost, on slaughtered lands

Choking alone on the dusty, dead desert sands

Then we learned we could all disobey

And watch your regulations wilt away

We spread the seed of bloom and birth

As all around us dies

Forsake the face of barren earth

And look to fertile eyes

Now the soil moistens each event

Drunk with the lushest leaves that ever went

Feasting on pieces of the sun till it sets

In this amazing maze we hedge our bets

And stand and swear a solemn oath

To spend our summer sprawl

Overrun by overgrowth

And underneath it all

Can't we all just get a lawn

And let it live its life, watch it grow?

Across the sand our line is drawn

And we're not gonna take any mow

Can't we all just get a lawn

And let it live its life, watch it grow

Before the day the grass is gone?

'Cause we're not gonna take any mow

We used to break our banks and backs

To make our lawns look nice

Now we lounge and we relax

Not even looking twice

No more lawns for you to lynch

Our gardens on their guard

At your feet, inch by inch

And spreading yard by yard
