lyrics

The noxious weeds and the busy bugs
Will attack your crops and tear the whole thing up
Defend your work, protect your time
Everyday stand guard at the door of your mind

All good will be attacked
At least on this planet that’s just a fact
Don’t press me for why, it wasn’t up to me
Every garden gets invaded no to think so is naive

So you must learn to defend it
Cause anything of value, must be defended
Family, friendship, social, business
Put knowledge into action turn it to wisdom

An ounce of prevention
Is worth a pound of cure and avoids a lot of fixing
At all costs you must protect your garden
Cause if not they will take everything you’ve started

The noxious weeds and the busy bugs
Will attack your crops and tear the whole thing up
Defend your work, protect your time
Everyday stand guard at the door of your mind

The noxious weeds and the busy bugs
Will attack your crops and tear the whole thing up
Defend your work, protect your time
Everyday stand guard at the door of your mind

Get smart, don’t be dumb
You can also be a weed, and you can be a bug
Messing up the good that you’ve done for yourself
Do some mental house cleaning to correct your health

Life is both strychnine and sugar
Your mind is the coffee so watch what you put in
The sugar doesn’t matter that much
Even if your enemy drops in a bunch

But if your best friend even by accident
Drops in the strychnine there’s no coming back from it
You’re a dead man walking
So always remember to watch your coffee

The noxious weeds and the busy bugs
Will attack your crops and tear the whole thing up
Defend your work, protect your time
Everyday stand guard at the door of your mind

The noxious weeds and the busy bugs
Will attack your crops and tear the whole thing up
Defend your work, protect your time
Everyday stand guard at the door of your mind
