TRACY BONHAM - Dandelion LYRICS

all my life I thought I was the one to save the world
it would come easy
now I'm old enough to sit around and piss and moan instead

Plant a tree and I will gladly admire its beauty
10 to 12 inches
don't expect that I will get out of my chair to watch it grow

And I was a blooming flower
blossoming from the seed
and I was a blooming flower
turn my back and turn to
weed

those are people with their votes and all them hippie thoughts
they do it better
if I got involved I'd only get in everybody's way

Shine my shoes and I won't say a word behind your back
yeah we're all brothers
don't expect that I will share my plate when your ribs start to show

and I was a blooming flower
blossoming from the seed
and I was a blooming flower
turn my back and turn to

dandelion dandelion
souls of you and me
how can you smell so bad but look so pretty?

and I was a blooming flower
blossoming from the seed
and I was a blooming flower
turn my back and turn to

I was a blooming flower
blossoming from the seed
and I was a blooming flower
turn my back and turn to
turn my back and turn to
turn my back and turn to
weed
