The Lyrics

Well, the lawn, lazy baby looks like a green sea,
The lawn looks like it has swells when it's breezy,
The lawn, lazy baby, makes folks look askance--
Take a blade to those plants.

Mow down, baby, now you gotta move your ass.
You know I got an awful longin' for you to do lawnin',
So, get out there and cut the grass.

Well you can't gawk at our home, and that isn't cool. . .
Covered by grass that grew.
Looks like prairie with waving sheaves of wheat;
You know what you gotta do:

You gotta mow down.
Baby, now you gotta move your ass.
You know I got an awful longin' for you to do lawnin',
So, get out there and cut the grass.

Well, you know you should mulch it after you are through,
Or else bale it up for cows that'll go "Moo!"
That lawn need's shavin' oh so bad;
Don't BS me that it's grown "just a tad."

Mow down, baby, now you gotta groom that grass.
You know that fescue's awful long 'n' you must do some lawnin',
So, get up off your lazy ass!
