Garden afternooning People all around Music in the air We're chilling on the ground Popcorn and coffee Guitars and Ukes Picnic blankets People sitting in twos The sounds are warm Resonant and rich Filling the air for the sake of the poor Hearts gathered together From all walks of life To find out how we can give more New connections made Awesome talent shared A good cause funded Now we're more aware So the garden was filled Our hearts were grown God's Kingdom was furthered So little hearts will know More love of the Father, The Author of this show

Garden Sounds

Garden afternooning People all around Music in the air We're chilling on the ground Popcorn and coffee Guitars and Ukes Picnic blankets People sitting in twos The sounds are warm Resonant and rich Filling the air for the sake of the poor Hearts gathered together From all walks of life To find out how we can give more New connections made Awesome talent shared A good cause funded Now we're more aware So the garden was filled Our hearts were grown God's Kingdom was furthered So little hearts will know More love of the Father, The Author of this show

So you like to drink in the bars, Or swill moonshine from old pickle jars; You could be far worse off than you are, You know you coulda been a dork. A dork's a mammalian who digs in his nose, His *** passes gas as he goes; He has greasy hair and picks at his wart, He plays with his ***** burbs and snorts. So if you like to spit, pick and hork, You're on your way to be a dork. Or would you rather drink in the bars, And swill moonshine from old pickle jars; You could be far worse off than you are, You know you coulda been a nerd. Nerds are mammalians in Bermuda shorts, Sandals with knee-high socks; He's awkward and clumsy and out of step, If we turn East, the nerd turns West. If you don't want treatment like a **** Then stop acting like a nerd. Or would you rather drink in the bars, Swilling moonshine from old pickle jars; You could be far worse off than you are, You don't wanna be a goof. A goof's a mammalian kiddie diddler, A rat, a punk, a toothless skinner; He's in jail to keep us safe, But in protective custody for his own sake. So if you don't heed the law and you're a **** You'll do well when you're a goof. Some solid guys aren't behind bars, We play ukes, guitars and cards; We're on stools in our local bars, Seeing ourselves as Avatars, While getting pickled in our jars.

Swilling From a Jar (Sung to "Swinging On a Star")

So you like to drink in the bars, Or swill moonshine from old pickle jars; You could be far worse off than you are, You know you coulda been a dork. A dork's a mammalian who digs in his nose, His *** passes gas as he goes; He has greasy hair and picks at his wart, He plays with his ***** burbs and snorts. So if you like to spit, pick and hork, You're on your way to be a dork. Or would you rather drink in the bars, And swill moonshine from old pickle jars; You could be far worse off than you are, You know you coulda been a nerd. Nerds are mammalians in Bermuda shorts, Sandals with knee-high socks; He's awkward and clumsy and out of step, If we turn East, the nerd turns West. If you don't want treatment like a **** Then stop acting like a nerd. Or would you rather drink in the bars, Swilling moonshine from old pickle jars; You could be far worse off than you are, You don't wanna be a goof. A goof's a mammalian kiddie diddler, A rat, a punk, a toothless skinner; He's in jail to keep us safe, But in protective custody for his own sake. So if you don't heed the law and you're a **** You'll do well when you're a goof. Some solid guys aren't behind bars, We play ukes, guitars and cards; We're on stools in our local bars, Seeing ourselves as Avatars, While getting pickled in our jars.
