Walking around the streets downtown, and my oh my, I wouldn't have guessed I'd find such a mess, well it hurt my eyes.
Glass bottles, and metal cans, and newspapers dropped from someone's hands, aluminum, a plastic jug, well they just don't understand.
I've got the land, I've got the land, I've got the landfill blues, I've got the land, I've got the land, I've got the landfill blues.
We dig a hole in the ground but its not always round, and build a mountain up to the sky, and to throw in our trash we've got to pay out the cash, and dig another hole by and by.
Well glass bottles, and metal cans, and newspapers dropped from someone's hands, aluminum, a plastic jug, well they just don't understand.
I've got the land, I've got the land, I've got the landfill blues, I've got the land, I've got the land, I've got the landfill blues.
Well now you'd think we would learn as this old world turns, there's got to be a better way, instead of calling it trash turn it into some cash, recycle and reuse I say.
Those glass bottles, and metal cans, and newspapers dropped from someone's hands, aluminum, a plastic jug, come on and get with the plan.
And lose the land, and lose the land, and lose the landfill blues, yeah lose the land, lose the land, lose the landfill blues.
