The Lawn Must Get Mowed

The war goes poorly
But the lawn must get mowed
The dollar is tanking
But the lawn must get mowed
I get a bit winded
Pushing round that old load
But so long as it's growing
The lawn must get mowed

The neighbors are yelling
The bread has got mold
The checks have stopped coming
The radiator's cold
Woke up again coughing
I just can't kick this cold
But I see it's still growing
So the lawn must get mowed

And I blame the Sun
And I blame the rain
I blame the spike in my back pain
I blame other drivers
I blame kids today
I blame that dog that died last may

The blade's worn and rusted
But the lawn must get mowed
The gas tank is empty
But the lawn must get mowed
Yeah, maybe it's cancer
Maybe I'm just old
But if it's still growing
Then the lawn must get mowed
