Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][A][G][Bm]

[Verse 1]
[D]Living in the
garbage [G]can can be a lot [D]of fun
It has its ups (doo,
[A]doo, doo, doo) and [D]downs
Or paper [F]cups and [Bb]coffee [F]grounds
[D]Living in the garbage
[G]can can [D]be a lot of fun
[G]Especia[D]lly if you meet
the perfect [C]onion[D]
Oh, the [F]great garbage can
is just full of good stuff
[Bb]All the disc[F]arded refuse of man
Like the [G]half used ba[C]nana
Whose [G]girlfriend is An[C]na
[G]Who shout let us out of this can

[Verse 2]
Woh, woh, wo[F]h,
said the poor Brussels sprout
If only me and the banana could get out
We'd [G]find an as[C]paragus
[G]who'd stand up and [C]marry us
But the [G]first thing to do is get
out
[F][C]

[Verse 3]
[F][C]
Now an [F]old piece of ham is in love
with some lamb
But a young head of lettuce is too
Now said [G]the ham to the lettuce,
[C]"The lam[G]b will forget us
[C]As [G]soon as he learns I love you"

[Verse 4]
Oh, [F]oh, oh
The [Bb]great garbage [F]can
It's a tribute to the ingenuity of man
Where [G]corn and to[C]matoes
are [G]mixed with pota[C]toes
And [G]thrown in together with ham
Where a Brussels sprout [C]and a sauerkraut
can [G]get together and have it out
[C]And no [G]one seems
to care about the plan
And a suc[A]cotash and a piece of hash
can get together and have a bash
For life is always equal in the can
