Lyrics

I love the way you play that song
If you teach the chorus I’ll sing along
It’s new to me but I’m keen to try
because my utopia is DIY

DIY, DIY
my utopia is DIY
It’s new to me but I’m keen to try
because my utopia is DIY

When the pails are full we’ll go home and shout
“Crank the tunes, get the jam jars out”
What we don’t can we can bake as pie
because my utopia is DIY

DIY, DIY
my utopia is DIY
What we don’t can we can bake as pie
because my utopia is DIY

Chopped up veg in a mixing bowl
Fermentation is how I roll
Time and culture will make it fly
and my utopia is DIY

DIY, DIY
my utopia is DIY
Time and culture will make it fly
and my utopia is DIY

There’s a coastal route that I need to hike
We can reach the trailhead by bus and bike
We’ll pitch camp under the open sky
and my utopia is DIY

DIY, DIY
my utopia is DIY
We’ll pitch camp under the open sky
and my utopia is DIY

Our potluck future, our common dream
The platform of an improv team
What we make ourselves we don’t need to buy
and my utopia is DIY

DIY, DIY
my utopia is DIY
What we make ourselves we don’t need to buy
and my utopia is DIY

You don’t learn to swim by staying dry
“Make and do!” is my rally cry
May I bake and knit till the day I die
because my utopia is DIY

DIY, DIY
my utopia is DIY
May I bake and knit till the day I die
because my utopia is DIY

My utopia, my utopia, my utopia is DIY.
