Hibiscus head-in a flower bed
A finger hewn-planted and sewn

Oh magic in her hands-she could make anything grow
Magic in her hands - she had green fingers

Its curious
Where animals dont go
Mandrake-rooted deep into the soil
Where the sun wont fall but it flourishes
See the pretty maids all in a row

Chorus

Its reaching
And groping a clammy handshake
Clawing the ivy
Crawling the tightrope along the lattice work
With this hand I thee wed
With this hand I thee bed
With this hand I . . .
