As sure as anything

As sure as I can be

That 99 %, pure as Ivory

I caught the scent, followed the smell of it

Couldn't Ignore

Hey, why did you pick on me?



What's that pretty flower I see?

Tall and wild it waves at me

Mother says it's just a weed

Golden Rod, Golden Rod



Growing Wild, not in the city

Gave me an allergy

And my reaction's, what's gonna happen?

It gets no help from me



I can't explain it

Maybe I shouldn't try to

That old genetic code,

Had a hold on me

We go inside it, ran head long into it

And mothers' warning, useless to me



What's that pretty flower I see?

Tall and wild it waves at me

Mother says it's just a weed

Golden Rod, Golden Rod



Another blonde, not from the city

gave me an allergy

And you can see me drinking the poison

Taking it happily.

You're running wild, not in the city

gave me an alleregy

And my reaction's

What's gonna happen?

It gets no help from

well you will see me

drinking the poison, taking it happily.



You're running wild

You're running wild

Another blonde not from the city

Drinking the poison

Taking it happily

not from the city

Golden Rod
