Shel Silverstein - Sahra Cynthia Sylvia Stout Would Not Take The Garbage Out Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • Oh Sahra Cynthia Sylvia Stout would not take the garbage out
  • She'd wash the dishes and scrub the pans cook the yams and spice the hams
  • And though her parents would scream and shout
  • She simply would not take the garbage out
  • And so it piled up to the ceilings coffee grounds potato peelings
  • Brown bananas and rotten peas chunks of sour cottage cheese
  • It filled the can it covered the floor it cracked the windows and blocked the door
  • With bacon rinds and chicken bones drippy ends of icecream cones
  • Prone pits peach pits orange peel gloppy glumps of cold oat meal
  • Pizza crust and withered greens soggy beans and tangerines
  • Crust of black burned buttered toast gristly bits of beefy roast
  • The garbage rolled on down the hall it raised the roof it broke the walls
  • I mean greesy napkins cookie crumbs blobs of gooey bubble gum
  • Cellophane from old baloney rubber blubbry macaroni
  • Peanut butter caced and dry curdled off milk and crusts of pie
  • Ridy melons dried up mustard eggs shells mixed with lemon custard
  • Cold french fries and rancid meat yellow lumps of cream of wheat
  • Uuh at last the garbage reached so high that finally it touched the sky
  • And none of her friends would come to play and all the neighbors moved away
  • And finally Sahra Cynthia Sylvia Stout said okay I'll take the garbage out
  • But then of course it was too late the garbage reached across the state
  • From New York to the Golden Gate and there in the garbage she did hate
  • Poor Sahra met an awful fate then I cannot right now relate
  • Because the hour is much too late
  • But children remember Sylvia Stout and always take the garbage out
