[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] Sunrise in the garden Spuds ready for the taking My shovel hit something soft A tiny life was breaking [Chorus] Oh little worm My garden friend A dirt nap dream No happy end [Verse 2] I saw him squirming there Two halves now separate ways A soldier on the battlefield Lost in these sunny days [Chorus] Oh little worm My garden friend A dirt nap dream No happy end [Instrumental Break] [Bridge] I dug with care before Now every scoop feels wrong A silent apology For a life cut short [Chorus] Oh little worm My garden friend I’ll turn the dirt more slow And leave a little bend [Outro] Sunrise in the garden Spuds still in the bed I set the shovel down And walk back in my head
