    Story Behind the Song
    This was the first time either Garrett or I had written a song successfully with another person. I think it was good to start somewhere less than serious.

    Lyrics
    The doorstop was giving me shit
    when good old Big Bird came my way
    he gave me the gourd and split
    I could tell it would be an average day

    King Gourd, king of the vegetables
    benefactor to the wheat
    Gourd the Great, king of the vegetables
    we all bow at his feet

    I held the gourd in my hand
    when suddenly it spoke
    it wanted to go see Pistol Pete
    But dammit, I was broke
    I apologized to Gourd
    and offered him a raincheck
    he said, "oh yeah, it's groovy"
    and I said, "what the heck"

    Gourd is god, Gourd is cool
    Gourd hangs out in my swimming pool
    but it's okay, it's alright
    Gourd just hopes my fish don't bite
    Gourd, yeah

    Gourd tells me of many things
    of wide spectrum and concern
    he is so good, he is so nice
    he's no ordinary fern
