Listen to the Grass Grow

11,000,000 immigrants
700 mile fence
Jobs going overseas
Doesn't make a lick of sense
Bomb scares, oil spills
Drill baby, Don't drill
Try to take it all in
It's gonna make you ill.

CHORUS
I'd rather Listen to the Grass Grow
Let the air Breathe me
Strip down to nothing
When I hear Sweet Water Creek
Everbody is out there
Trying to grab that big brass ring.
But I don't know...
No, no, no
I'd rather Listen to the Grass Grow.

Lock the house, lock the car
Don't know who her neighbors are
They can build a temple
but not in HER backyard.
God is God, War is War
Which one are you fighting for?
Hey, I'll pray to mine,
you prayer to yours.

Repeat CHORUS

Reality TV, instant celebrity
Squeezing out every last minute of their fifteen.
All day access, courtesy of Internet
Everybody's plugged in
I just wanna DISCONNECT.
