Life was good in my neighborhood With Mother Nature safely quarantined A perfect yard was my work of art A study in uninterrupted green Till uninvited you came by Brandishing your yellow smile Drifted in and wouldnt go away Had a party on my lawn Making all the neighbors talk Then hung around like you were gonna stay I cursed and swore, prepared for war Madly engineering your demise Then headed for the garden store To buy my ammunition and supplies To protect the innocent My first attack was limited Precision guided missiles hit you hard But you came back a second time Laughing with your yellow eyes So I carpet bombed the whole dang yard Sometimes you have to stand up Sometimes you have to fight When Natures on your land It doesnt have the right So put up your dukes Its me or you Dandelion Then one day in my naiveté I declared that victory was near I did not foresee your insurgency And now you have been tormenting me for years And Im inclined to think these days Youll be growing on my grave Which I will still be trying to defend Because this in not a happy tale I am Ahab, youre the whale And I remember how that story ends Sometimes you have to stand up Sometimes you have to fight When Natures on your land It doesnt have the right So put up your dukes Its me or you Dandelion So put up your dukes Im coming for your roots Its me or you Dandelion
