Nellie McKay - Happy Flower lyrics
Your rating:
You and me We sweat, we slave We gamble recklessly As if a dagger in the dark Me and you We misbehave We trample fecklessly Upon the bladder of our hearts But it? s a happy flower in the mornin' sun And it? ll keep perfumin' when the mornin's done This ain? t no tacky flower in a masquerade And it? ll keep on bloomin' 'til it steals the shade Of the garden 'neath our window pane You and me We leave, we lie We're runnin' through the ramble Off the road of sad goodbyes Me and you We tease, we try We're cuttin' off the ample charms Put forward from the skies But it? s a happy flower in the mornin' sun And it? ll keep on glowin' when the mornin's done And though our happy flower doesn't make a sound Well, it? ll keep growin' 'til it fills the ground Of the garden 'neath our window pane Happy flower, happy flower Happy flower, happy flower Happy flower, happy flower Happy flower, happy flower Happy flower
