Astroturf (Live in Chicago ’23) lyrics
by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard
This song's called "Astroturf"
Woo
[Verse 1]
Woo!
Everything's dead here
Covered in 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
Better for the earth is astroturf, 'kay
[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 fly on astroturf"
[Verse 2]
Okay
Suitable texture
Suitable colour
Miniature forest
Better than nature
Make me feel better
Knowing I won't go
Out on my lawn and
See an animal
Well, everything's sterile
Even infertile
Proud of my monster-ah
It's never been straighter!
The dog sh*t heaven
Better than the earth is astroturf
[Chorus]
Okay
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 fly on astroturf"
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturf
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturf
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturfing
Astroturf
Astroturfing
Is better for the earth
Astroturf
Alright, give me a second
[Instrumental]
Yeah!
Okay
Yeah, Lukey
Let's go, yeah
Woo!
Yeah
[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 fly on astroturf," yeah
Very good
Who said we didn't go to Berklee?
I did, I said that
Ah, okay
Price is good
Hey, I'm dressed like a Bud Light can
Thoughts?
Anyone can have a sip
Alright, Cookie Dawg
Let's do some dog-type sh*t, yeah?
Yeah, some straight up
Yeah, let's do it doggy-style!
Rawr!
Yeah, dog
Alright, this one's called "Down the Sink"
Ready, fellas?
