(the self-sustaining song) Dig Up Your Lawn by TRILLION

A solution for protest and sustainability.
Evil corporations should not have full control over the world’s food supply.

Dedicated to my mother and her lovely garden which I miss.

DIG UP YOUR LAWN

Lyrics:

can you dig it, for all the people that don’t have a garden
would you start one if you thought you’d be starvin
i like my potatoes fried or boiled
mashed, or baked in a pie or foil
picture good health - the answer lies in soil (yip)
not in labs - where plants are tied in coils
and DNA spliced ’til they resemble something else
with lies so nice that end in plundered wealth
and patents that spread in a way few can trace
to poison the 3rd world and slay the human race
in the guise of progress - but it’s manipulation
a scraping hand raping lands and crippling nations
and what about this theory - there’s a chance go figure
more carbon in the atmosphere makes plants grow bigger
crazy huh? that’s not what we’re all taught
but many lies live on while many truths fall short

what (are) we gonna eat when it’s banned in our street,
when the land is depleted and there’s sand at our feet.

(when) times get hard, time to dig up the yard,
and turn the lawn into a garden

what (are) we gonna speak to the clan of elite
what they plan is to cheat us but we stamp out deceit.

(when) times get hard, time to dig up the yard,
and turn the lawn into a garden or starve!

i like to seed sow with no shoes and no shirt
and i have no time for people who throw dirt
and label us water wasters - gardens can’t survive
unless we use water to keep plants alive
it’s time to save seeds cos the seeds that are saved
in that underground bunker in norway are no way for us.
it’s for the bilderberg and rotten shady elite
they try to poison our food and rock our babies to sleep
while coppin ADD and poppin eighty a week.
you’re behaving like sheep - ladies shopping - lazy and weak
they think they own us now cos they’ve bought all the banks
i heard this farmer walked a plank for saving water in tanks
sounds like they don’t want us to look after our ground right
stuff em, get a big drum and bang it under your down pipe
time to kick up a storm - dig up your lawn and plant seed fast
a week’s passed since you learned that sheeple can’t eat grass,
it’s all ESP like a bending spoon
this impending doom - it can end at noon - if you’re ready,
but i won’t wait for eggs to hatch
i’ll be debating what to eat from my vege patch
and getting exercise and vitamin d from the sun
i like to find them and see what my seeds have become.
in a year or two when severely screwed and money drawn
you’ll be: G’s up hoes down too and digging up your lawn

what (are) we gonna eat when it’s banned in our street,
when the land is depleted and there’s sand at our feet.

(when) times get hard, time to dig up the yard,
and turn the lawn into a garden

what (are) we gonna speak to the clan of elite
if we stand in defeat when thier plan is complete?

(when) times get hard, time to dig up the yard,
and turn the lawn into a garden or starve!

remember the best kind of garden is an organic garden, chemical pesticides and herbicides ruin your soil and eventually your health. And support unethical, destructive and corrupt companies. also, when you dig up your lawn don’t sell your lawn mower because one day you may need to covert it into a generator.
