Oh, trash man Bet you're wonderin' what's been goin' on All this garbage I've been passin' on To you Like a picture I threw away I guess you picked it up today (Trash man) Hauling my memories away Oh, trash man Don't read the letter she returned There's a couple I forgot to burn Last night Just pick up the trash and go I don't wanna see you feelin' low (Trash man) Your job is tough enough I know (Trash man) Oh, trash man Bet you think I've almost lost my mind (Trash man) All the bottles that I left behind For you I tried to drown my misery And now they're empty just like me (Trash man) Haulin' off my memories Oh, trash man 'Cause it's just a not your day Worked so hard for so little pay And hard to hold
