Like an Adam and Eve
Garden of Eden
I wish I had a lawnmower
Where, where is the town?
Now it's all covered with flowers
Now there are mountains and rivers
You've got it, you've got it
Now it's a peaceful oasis
By the side of the road
The highways and cars
I was an angry young man

Now we got somethin' for dinner
Here we stand
You've got it, you've got it
We've got it, we've got it
Once there were parkin' lots
We've got it, we've got it
I thought that we'd start over
So beautiful and strong
And chocolate chip cookies
Dairy queens, and 7-Elevens
Birds in the trees
Were sacrificed for agriculture
This was a Pizza Hut
Now, it's nothin' but flowers
Years ago
Two fools in love
Waterfalls
There was a factory
This used to be real estate
Now it's all covered with daisies
Standin' tall
I miss the honky tonks
We caught a rattlesnake
You've got it, you've got it
But I guess I was wrong, hey
You've got it, you've got it
I can't get used to this lifestyle
You've got it, you've got it
We used to microwave
Now we just eat nuts and berries
From the age of the dinosaurs
You've got it, you've got it
You've got it, you've got it
This was a discount store

You've got it, you've got it
I'd pretend
Where, where have they gone?
And as things fell apart
There was a shoppin' mall
With a beautiful highway
Are smiling upon them
Now, it's nothin' but flowers
Cars have run on gasoline
If this is paradise
You've got it, you've got it
That I was a billboard
Now it's turned into a cornfield
Now it's only fields and trees
I fell in love
Nobody paid much attention
Don't leave me stranded here
I dream of cherry pies, candy bars
