Green Buckets

[Verse 1] Won't you come over and stay for a while? Take a seat, have a drink, we'd have a nice time Turn on the TV, I believe it's prime time I'll make you chicken cacciatore in five There's a woman down at 314 Who can't keep the stains on her kitchen floor clean And there's a man who's been knocking on his own door For three years, or has it been four? I don't wanna spend the winter in this house all alone Those neighbors of mine Keep coming on over and playing with my mind [Chorus] I would like to love ya I sure would treat you right We could take the trash out Every Thursday night [Verse 2] Here in my neighborhood, there is the strangest thing Green buckets every Friday at every driveway They're filled with glasses, plastics and newspapers, too They say they recycle and bring 'em back to you [Chorus] I would like to love ya I sure would treat you right We could take the trash out Every Thursday night We could be a family Consume many goods We could be the pillars Of the neighborhood [Guitar Solo] [Verse 3] Ah babe, I'm a real hard worker With the proper tools, I'll make you anything you yearn for The barbarians are at the gate Come in before it's too late Got food enough to last the two of us about a year A thousand cans of chowder and a thousand cans of beer I love my neighbors like I love my own brother But every year, they're getting odder and odder [Chorus] I would like to love ya I sure would treat you right We could take the trash out Every Thursday night We could be a family Consume many goods We could be the pillars Of the neighborhood
