Dm
Mr. Thompson Thompson calls the waiter,
Orders steak and baked potato,
But he leaves the bone and gristle,
A
And he never eats the skins.
The busboy comes and takes it
With a cough contaminates it
He puts it in a can
Dm
With coffee grounds and sardine tins
A
And the truck comes by on Friday
Dm
And carts it all away
G
A thousand trucks just like it
C
A
Are converging on the bay
Dm
Oh, garbage! Garbage! Garbage!
Garbage! Garbage! Garbage!
A
Filling up the seas with garbage
What will we do and there's no place left
Dm
to put all the garbage.
Garbage! Garbage! Garbage!
Garbage! Garbage!
Mr. Thompson starts his Cadillac
and winds it down the freeway track
leaving friends and neighbors
He's joined by lots of smaller cars
all sending gases to the stars.
There they form a seething cloud
Dm
that hangs for thirty days.
A
And the sun looks down into it
Dm
with an ultraviolet tongue,
C
A
and then it settles in our lungs.
Dm
Oh, garbage! Garbage! Garbage!
Garbage! Garbage!
A
We're filling up the sky with garbage.
What will we do
when there's nothing left to
breathe but garbage?
Dm
Garbage! Garbage! Garbage!
Garbage!
Getting home and taking
off his shoes,
he settles with the evening news
While the kids do homework
While Superman for the thousandth time
sells talking dolls and conquers crime
Dutifully they learn the date
Dm
of the birth of Paul Revere
A
In the papers there's a piece
Dm
about the mayor's middle name
G
He gets it read in time
C
A
to watch the all -star bingo game.
Dm
Oh, Garbage! Garbage! Garbage!
Garbage! Garbage! Garbage!
A
We're filling up our minds with garbage.
What will we do
when there's nothing
left to read?
When there's nothing left
to need?
Nothing left to watch.
Nothing left to touch.
Nothing left to walk upon.
And nothing left to talk upon.
A
A
And nothing left to see.
There's nothing left to be but... GARBAGE!
