Happy Flower
You and meWe sweatWe slaveWe gamble recklessly as if a dagger in the darkMe and youWe misbehaveWe trample fecklessly upon the bladder of our heartsBut it’s a happy flower in the morning sunAnd it’ll keep perfuming when the morning's doneThis ain’t no tacky flower in a masqueradeAnd it’ll keep on blooming till it steals the shadeOf the garden ‘neath our windowpaneYou and meWe leaveWe lieWe’re running through the ramble off the road of sad goodbyesMe and youWe teaseWe tryWe’re cutting off the ample charms put forward from the skiesBut it’s a happy flower in the morning sunAnd it’ll keep on glowing when the morning’s doneAnd though our happy flower doesn’t make a soundWell it’ll keep growing till it fills the groundOf the garden ‘neath our windowpaneHappy flower...
