Everybody wants to dance in a playpen |
|
But nobody wants to play in my garden |
|
I see the hippies on an angry line |
|
Guess they don't get my meaning |
|
I'm enchanted by the birds in my blossoms |
|
I'm enamored by young lovers on the weekend |
|
I like the Fourth of July |
|
When bombs start flashing |
|
And I wish I had a shiny red top |
|
A bugle with a big brass bell would cheer me up |
|
Or maybe something bigger that could really go pop! |
|
So I could make the gardening stop |
|
Come out to play |
|
Come out to play |
|
And we'll pretend it's Christmas Day |
|
In my atomic garden |
|
All my scientists are working on a deadline |
|
So my psychologist is working day and night time |
|
They say they know what's best for me |
|
But they don't know what they're doing |
|
And I'm glad I'm not Gorbachev |
|
'cause I'd wiggle all night |
|
Like jelly in a pot |
|
At leats he's got a garden with a fertile plot |
|
And a party that will never stop |
|
Come out to play |
|
Come out to play |
|
And we'll pretend it's Christmas Day |
|
In my atomic... |
|
I hope there's nothing wrong out there |
|
I'm watching from my room inside my room |
|
Come out to play |
|
Come out to play |
|
Come out to play |
|
And we'll pretend its christmas day in my atomic garden |
