"The Garden" is a Sesame Street song about trash, sung by Susan and Oscar. It warns that if you make a mess without cleaning it up, you will end up with a "glop, glop, grungy, glop garden where the playground used to be."
Another version of the song, as performed by Big Jeffy (the bass singer for Little Jerry and the Monotones), was featured on the show in the 1970s; during the bridge, Jeffy tells Cookie Monster and Grover to stop littering.
