Hello dumpster, my old friend. I’ve come to dive with you again.
C(3) E(2) G A A G C(2) E(2) G A(2) G
Because a hunger softly creeping, left it’s growl when I was sleeping.
C(2) A(2) C(2) B A G A G E
And the free food, pictured in my brain, still remains.
C(2) C G B C A
Within, the sound, of dumpsters.
A(2) C(2) E C D B(5) D B C
Alleys I explored alone, looking for a tossed cell phone.
C(2) E(2) G(2) A(2) G C(3) E(2) G(2) A(3) G
And the cop, he drove around the block. I hid beneath a pile of celery stalk.
C(2) A A B C(2) B A G G A G E
And I prayed, that he would not turn a - round. I won’t be found,
C(3) C(2) G B C A
Listening, to the sound, of dumpsters.
A(2) C E C D B(5) D B C
In the moonlight, I saw, 10,000 divers maybe more.
C(3) E(2) G A(2) G C E(2) G A(2) G
Recycling food that’s been thrown away. So much, you’ll be blown away.
C E G A C(3) B A G G A G E
We’re shopping where savings are so much more, the third hand store.
C(3) C(2) G B C A
Listening, to the sound, of dumpsters.
A(2) C(2) E C D B(4) D B C
Dumpster dive and then you’ll know, Buried fruits make gardens grow.
C(2) E(2) G A(2) G
Eat that yogurt so I might teach you.
C(3) E(2) G(2) A(2) G
Dive to the bottom so I might reach you.
E G A B C(3) B A G G A G E
Expired bread, like ripe avacados fell, you know the smell.
C(3) C(2) G B C A
Listening, to the sound, of dumpsters.
A(2) C(2) E C D B(2) D B C
And the divers danced and played; they were not afraid.
C(2) E G A A G C E G(2) A(3) G
And the sign flashed it’s warning. No trespassing, it was forming.
C(2) E(2) G(2) A C(3) B A G
Private prop - erty means stay, out of the dumpster box.
G A G E E(2) C(2) C(2) G B C A
But there’s no locks, when you listen, to the sound of dumpsters.
C(2) C(2) G B C A C(2) C(2) G B C A
Listen to the sound of dumpsters. Listen to the sound of dumpsters
