Mr. Landscaper, do what you do.
Turn my grass to a verdant hue.
Flowers blossom, bloom and grow.
Waves of butterflies come and go.
Release a monkey in my tree.
Don't you know you've captivated me?

Bars on Windows
Bars on windows,
Dead bolt locks on doors!
Is this home a sweet home
Or a prison of yours?
Insulated and barricaded,
A fence around your yard,
Separated and isolated,
Growling dogs on patrol to guard!
"Trespassers must keep out!"
Perimeter signs do note.
You're as a castle high on a hill
Surrounded by a mote.
You've hoisted your yellow flag.
A warning has been told.
What has you locked in quarantine?
What disease has taken hold?
Are you sure beyond a doubt
That your purpose is to keep unwanted people out?
Or do you fear they may have eyes to see
That your soul has leprosy?
Dead bolt locks on doors!
Is this home a sweet home
Or a prison of yours?
Insulated and barricaded,
A fence around your yard,
Separated and isolated,
Growling dogs on patrol to guard!
"Trespassers must keep out!"
Perimeter signs do note.
You're as a castle high on a hill
Surrounded by a mote.
You've hoisted your yellow flag.
A warning has been told.
What has you locked in quarantine?
What disease has taken hold?
Are you sure beyond a doubt
That your purpose is to keep unwanted people out?
Or do you fear they may have eyes to see
That your soul has leprosy?
