Give a man a gun, he'll rob a bank Give a man a bank, he'll rob the world Thank you darling, but no thanks I'd rather plant my garden, watch the marigolds unfurl Roots are drugged, town's full of thugs, shoots get shot Suffocate without windows in a box Librarians are communists and windmills are stopped Under stars in withered circle crops Give a man a gun, he'll rob a bank Give a man a bank, he'll rob the world Thank you darling, but no thanks I'd rather plant my garden, watch the marigolds unfurl Yeah camouflage, jungle yard, branches, leaves, weed and bark Little patch, steam-rolled into flats Concrete moats, 'n houses built so fast Mother nature cries, n' that itch becomes a scratch Give a man a gun, he'll rob a bank Give a man a bank, he'll rob the world Thank you darling, but no thanks I'd rather plant my garden, watch the marigolds unfurl Don't get a lawyer, buy a judge Fossil bones, Gina moans, over oil and rocks and stuff Dad I dug a big big hole, now it's filling up with sludge Stock marketeers are shooting up Give a man a gun, he'll rob a bank Give a man a bank, he'll rob the world Thank you darling, but no thanks I'd rather plant my garden, watch the marigolds unfurl Yeah Rupert screamed at halloween, fairy tales and tax As bunyips hunt in misty mallee shrouds Sparks burst from my spleen, a catherine-wheel that can't relax All these cunning stunts will make some parents proud Give a man a gun, he'll rob a bank Give a man a bank, he'll rob the world Thank you darling, but no thanks I'd rather plant my garden, watch the marigolds unfurl I'd rather plant my garden, watch the marigolds unfurl
