Husband's National Anthem.... |

Husband's
National Anthem
My lawnmower tis of thee,
Sweet tool of misery,
Of thee I sing.
Lawn where my father died!
He should have stayed inside!
Protect me from his foolish pride,
Let freedom ring!
My grassy backyard, thee,
Lawn of the never free,
I see you grow.
I hate thy rocks and rills,
I hate to mow up hills;
My heart with loathing fills
I cut too low.
Let mowing swell the breeze,
Watch out for flowers and trees,
The lawnmower hums.
Let nature now awake;
I’ve had all I can take;
I’m ready for a break.
My life prolong.
This lawn is work to me,
I need my liberty,
To clear my head,
Long may my work be light;
I tried with all my might;
My Saturday’s will now be quiet,
The lawn is dead!
AUTHOR'S NOTE: "My
Country Tis of Thee" was written by Samuel Francis Smith to
the music of an old patriotic German tune. The same tune
was also set to other words and later became the English
National Anthem, "God Save the King."
