My strawberries have gone rotten in my garden Can you help me with that at all? Mr green thumb I've heard you've got a knack for fixing up a patch off land that refuses to grow Oh they say my soil ain't good enough My soil is poor in nutrients But I've been adding nitrogen Until it can't take any more And I've been journaling This may not seem like gardening But they still say that's important to grow Oh all my friends are coming over Coming over to my place to stay And when my friends come over They will all laugh in my face My brain has gone rotten in my garden Too much resting on my laurels Not enough time pulling up weeds Oh feels like a lobotomy Well I don't know how that feels But this gardening business It does nothing for me So Mr gardener Come garden for me please sir I've tried all of the tricks in the book Except for planting the seeds And I've been lying here Pretty hard work and I'm full of fear That my lying here It will never cease Oh all my friends are coming over Coming over to my place to stay And when my friends come over They will all laugh in my face A musician or an artist A poet or a chemist I don't want to be a gardener I'll be a drunk or a nitty All alone I'm not too picky But I don't want to be a gardener I'll be a stranger to my lover As long as I don't hold a mower I'll be stressed, I won't be a gardener I'll be a fisher or a fashion icon I'll be a terrible father to my future son Because I won't look after my garden And all my friends are coming over Coming over to my place to stay And when my friends come over They will all laugh in my face
