lyrics

the flower in my apartment you are dead
brought you back home to take you to bed
we didn't have much to say, no we didn't get along
so I thought I'd break the ice by singing a song

turns out all you wanted was a jar and some water
you told me that way I get to look at you longer
but everything that's good in life, and in style
never stays around for a long enough while

now I gotta go find myself a new lover
this time I won't steal from my neighbour's mother
this time I might try it, all by myself
and grow myself a garden right here on the shelf
