Astroturf lyrics
by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
[Verse 1]
Everything's dead here
Covered with plastic
Everything's fluoro
Evergreen matter
Gotta stop grass growin'
Cover that wormhole
Gotta stop birds from
sh*tting on my lawn
When it don't matter
Everything's better
Throwaway plates are
Better for business
Everything's easy (Wee!)
Better for the earth is astroturf
[Chorus]
Six butterflies fluttered by
Looked horrified
"I just hatched from chrysalis
I've only hours, 36
I need a mate to do my biz and this is where I will die
Heartbreaking way to end
I will cry on astroturf"
[Verse 2]
Suitable texture
Suitable colour
Miniature forest
Better than nature
Makes me feel better
Knowing I won't go
Out on my lawn and
See an animal
Everything's sterile
Even infertile
Proud of my monster
It's never been straighter
Dog sh*t heaven
Better than the earth
It's astroturf
[Chorus]
Six butterflies fluttered by
Looked horrified
"I just hatched from chrysalis
I've only hours, 36
I need a mate to do my biz and this is where I will die
Heartbreaking way to end
I will cry on astroturf"
[Verse 3]
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturf
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturf
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturf
Astroturfing
Better than the earth is astroturf
[Flute Solo]
(Woo!)
(Wee!)
[Drum Solo]
(Wee!)
[Bass Solo]
(Woo!)
[Chorus]
Six butterflies fluttered by
Looked horrified
"I just hatched from chrysalis
I've only hours, 36
I need a mate to do my biz and this is where I will die
Heartbreaking way to end
I will cry on astroturf"
