Zombies on Your Lawn
- For the Chinese version shown in Plants vs. Zombies: All Stars, see Zombie All-Stars.
Zombies on Your Lawn is the song featured in the credits of Plants vs. Zombies, and the Plants vs. Zombies 2 Modern Day part 1 trailer, composed and performed by Laura Shigihara, composer of the Plants vs. Zombies score.
The music video, in which the lead singer is a Sunflower, was used as a promotional piece for the game as well as being the credits. In Xbox Live Arcade and PlayStation Network editions, it plays when the player beats the game, video inclusive.
The song appears as Track 15 on the Plants vs. Zombies Original Soundtrack. An alternate version with Japanese lyrics appears on the same soundtrack as Track 17.
English lyrics
Sunflower: Sunflower!
One, two, three!
There's a zombie on your lawn.
There's a zombie on your lawn.
There's a zombie on your lawn.
We don't want zombies on the lawn.
I know your type: tall, dark, and dead,
You want to bite all the petals off of my head
And then eat the brains of the one who planted me here (Homeowner: Nooooooooooo!)
I'm just a sunflower but see me power an entire infantry
You like the taste of brains, we don't like zombies
Football Zombie: I used to play football
Sunflower: Play football!
Conehead Zombie: Road cones protect my head
Sunflower: Cone on his head.
Screen Door Zombie: I have a screen door shield
Sunflower: Screen door shield!
All zombies: We are the undead!
Sunflower: There's a zombie on your lawn.
There's a zombie on your lawn.
There's a zombie on your lawn.
We don't want zombies on the lawn.
Maybe it's time to reevaluate
I know you have a lot of food on your plate
Brains are quite rich in cholesterol
You're dead so it doesn't matter,
Instead we'll use this solar power to make a lawn defense at any hour.
Digger Zombie: I like your tricycle
Sunflower: Tricycle.
Buttered Zombie: There's butter on my head
Sunflower: On his head.
Dolphin: (Dolphin sound) I'm gonna eat your brains
Sunflower: Oh no no no.
All zombies: We are the undead!
Sunflower: There's a zombie on your lawn.
There's a zombie on your lawn.
There's a zombie on your lawn.
We don't want zombies on the lawn.

Trivia
- Sunflower's parts are sung by Laura Shigihara. The Zombies' parts are sung by the creator of Plants vs. Zombies, George Fan.
- The Japanese Zombies' part of this song is sung by Shigihara's father to match the funny lyrics of this song with an energetic Japanese Gameshow host voice.
- In the Japanese version, the "football" words pronounced as "フトボール" (futobōru), but in the lyrics, it is pronounced as "ソフトボール" (sofutobōru) or "softball."
- The Football Zombie says "I used to play football" but the Suburban Almanac states the Football Zombie has no idea what a football is, implying that he either actually did not play football or forgot what it is after his death.
- Shigihara used part of the Pool's daytime music to compose the tune for this song.
- As the lyrics are displayed on the bottom of the screen, a brain functions as the bouncing ball pointer, indicating which word is being sung.
- The brain is off sync and synchronizes with the word being sung.
- At the end of the video, a picture of the Cattail appears next to Laura Shigihara's name, it was added because that it is her favorite plant.
- The end of the video says the song was produced by "Bloom and Doom Records", named similarly after Bloom and Doom Seed Co., the company that makes the seed packets.
- Crazy Dave still has his pot on his head when held by a Bungee Zombie in the music video, despite the fact that it fell off when the Bungee Zombie kidnapped him on Level 5-10.
- The Sunflower's movement in the song is faster than that of an in-game sunflower.
- The same thing happens to the Zombie when it is entering the house and eat the player's brain.
- This video suggests that the fog in Fog levels comes from a fog machine.
- When the Sound FX volume is muted, the "NOOOO!" part after Sunflower sings "And then eat the brains of the one who planted me here." and the dolphin sound before the dolphin says "I'm gonna eat your brains" cannot be heard.
- In the MMORPG World of Warcraft, exists a Quest, which, after the player has beaten a Plants vs. Zombies-like mini-game, rewards him or her with a pet, which looks exactly like the Sunflower and sings sometimes. The song is a small collection of lyrics taken from this song.
- The music video is mentioned in Sunflower's Almanac entry in Plants vs. Zombies 2.
- Furthermore, this song was used again in the Modern Day Part 1 trailer and as an instrumental remix in Modern Day's final wave music.
- This song is absent from free versions of iOS and Android versions, although the player still receives a note from zombies to view credits after beating Dr. Zomboss.
- The song is used in Apple Mortar's tournament in Arena as the background music, due to that tournament being released after Plants vs. Zombies' 10th anniversary.
- In Nintendo DS version, it uses the same sprite as PC version Also, it has some pan and zoom animation after "One, Two, Three!", "And then eat the brains of the one who planted me here.", "We are the Undead" and in the outro
