lyrics

Build a road, make it wide, tie a bow - countryside!
And lubricate it with bacon grease
String some lights, build a circle, name it "Sir," after the colonel
Even though it's probably elliptical
We stay busy
We work real hard
We stay busy
And we work real hard

Another way? That's not important. If you see it, guess it's working
If I'm honest I've been mostly comfortable
I read some books I do my best; well, more like I acquiesce
But seriously I get pretty busy
So busy
I work real hard
We stay busy
And we work real hard

Build a road, make it wide, tie a bow - countryside!
This time really scrub around the edges
String some lights, build a square, name it "Sir," after the heir
Even though it's probably rectangular
We stay busy
We work real hard
We stay busy
And we work real hard
