The Lyrics

Happened to be passing a garbage truck in the 8AM hour on my way to work on a small street near home, and once I thought of them as a "trashman", the Beatles tune "Taxman" came to mind almost instantly..thus I spent my workday penning the following..
I don't pick up recyclables
You're lucky if I take it all
Coz I'm the Trashman...yeah I'm the Trashman

I'll block the traffic on your street
The garbage stench will be your treat
Coz I'm the Trashman...yeah I'm the Trashman

(If you honk your horn) I'll trash your car
(Flip me the bird)I'll mash your car
(If your driveway's blocked) I'll trash your cans
(If you call the cops) I'll trash your land....Trashman!!(guitar lead)

Don't ask me "when's trash pickup day"
I'll tell you that "It's March and May"
Coz I'm the Trashman...yeah I'm the Trashman

Now my advice for those with trash (Uh Uh trash removal)
When I stop by ply me with cash (Uh oh garbage heap)
Coz I'm the Trashman...yeah I'm the Trashman
And trash pickup I'll never guarantee...

Trash pickup only every other month? You must be living in Philadelphia.

You are perceptive Union Buster..grew up in North Philly..but for sarcasm sake Trashman claims March and May are the only two months he guarantees trash pickup...
