There's a statue of Mozart face-down in my garden
He's been layin' there like that since the fifth of July
This big hunk of stone - layin' there all alone
And I can't pick him up no matter how hard I try

(Chorus)
Hey, there Amadeus
You've been layin' there way too long
Hey, there Amadeus
I wish you'd get up and play us a song

This statue of Mozart face-down in my garden
He's about the best friend I'd ever want
We've talked for hours among the weeds and the flowers
He's my constant companion - my true confidant

(Chorus)

This statue of Mozart face-down in my garden
He shared with me the secrets of his greatest hits
He said, "I steal from the best and throw away the rest
I learned everything I know from Gladys Knight And The Pips"

(Chorus)

This statue of Mozart face-down in my garden
He ain't much different than most folks I know
Maybe he got tired of not really livin'
Maybe he got tired of being trapped in stone
