Keep Off The Grass Dave Van Ronk

Keep off the grass!
The sign says 'keep off the grass!'
Keep off the grass!
The sign says 'keep off the grass!'

What's the grass for anyway?
Is it only there to look at
While you stand on tired feet
On the pavement on a hot summer's day?

What's the grass for in the spring?
Curb your dog!
Curb your thoughts!
Don't think about the grass or anything!

Can't you see the sign?
Can't you see the sign? (see the sign)

Keep off the grass!
The sign says 'keep off the grass!'
Keep off the grass!
The sign says 'keep off the grass!'

Is there a place where I can go?
Don't sit on the grass
Use the grass
Bruise the grass
The answer's no!
