Kill Yr Lawn

I like to sleep in on weekends to regain my strength
From working hard all week just to pay all my bills
But I can't do a thing in the mornings from all that noise
Lawnmowers roaring, spewing fumes
Like 50 cars outside your window

Don't conform - kill your lawn
kill your lawn - go native plants
save your fuel - kill your lawn
Kill your lawn - save our ears

Do you really want to spend your summer
moving in squares, sucking up fumes?
Or you're gonna force your kids to waste their youth
piling up grass, raking leaves
applying poisons worse than any disease

Don't conform - kill your lawn
kill your lawn - rocks look cool
save your time - kill your lawn
kill your lawn - save our lungs

Your lawn's a Victorian-era status symbol
showing off how useless you can afford to be
so proud you own land
you've evicted every living thing

Don't conform - kill your lawn
kill your lawn - grow some food
save your soul - kill your lawn
kill your lawn - save our world

Why do you have to empty every lake
on nothing you can use and nothing you can eat?
you're destroying my world, too, it's not just yours to waste
gas in your mower, gas to the store
for food you could have grown in your front yard

Don't conform - kill your lawn
kill your lawn - go native plants
save your fuel - kill your lawn
kill your lawn - save our ears
