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 SongtexteAnd 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 Aus Songtexte Mania
