Wild Flowers Songtext
von Simon Scardanelli

She said "I′ll make a cup of tea
Then if you want to you can leave
But I'm the kind of girl that you
Can really get your teeth into."

Don′t come with baggage or a plan
I'll be no trouble to the man
Who can find his way around
This neck of the woods"

Boys - pick all the flowers in the garden
And lay down in the meadow with their yearning
But boys, don't know the scent of sweetened poison
And never know the trouble that they′re in
No boys, don′t know the trouble that they're in

He said "I′ll take another bite
If this is love I'll go all night
But you look pale and rather cold
Step out into the moonlight"


"Now that I take a closer look
Your pretty neck that got me hooked
Is full of holes - I wish you′d said
Don't want happy hereafter"

Boys - pick all the flowers in the garden
And lay down in the meadow with their yearning
But boys, don′t know the scent of sweetened poison
And never know the trouble that they're in
No Boys, don't know the trouble that they′re in

She said "I′ll make a cup of tea
Then if you want to you can leave
But I'm the kind of girl that you
Can really get your teeth into."

"And if you stick with me" she said,
"You′ll see it's thrilling to be dead
And as for pain and growing old
Well that′s strictly for mortals"

Boys - pick all the flowers in the garden
And lay down in the meadow with their yearning
But boys, don't know the scent of sweetened poison
And never know the trouble that they′re in
No Boys, don't know the trouble that they're in
