A response to John Green's video "Your Yard is Evil" in song form!
DFTBA!
lyrics
Chorus:
Your yard is evil, your lawn's
a lush, green parasite.
Nobody uses them, and to me
that doesn't seem right.
And when you try to
use a lawn you get harrassed.
People get angry and
yell at you "get off the grass".
Verse 1:
I propose without hesitation
that you spurn the Homeowner's Associ-i-a-tion
and lend your lawn to cultivation
to help increase urban vegetation.
Chorus (again)
Verse 2:
With some tears, some blood, and some perspiration
we could decrease this fast food nation
and institute a healthy meal rotation
with our mini Farmville incarnation.
Chorus (#3)
Outro:
But I've gone on far too long
the day's not getting any cooler
and I have to go mow my lawn.
