lirik lagu david byrne - (nothing but) flowers (live)

[verse 1]
here we stand
like an adam and eve
waterfalls
garden of eden
two fools in love
so beautiful and strong
birds in the trees
are smiling upon them
from the age of the dinosaurs, cars have run on gasoline
where? where have they gone?
now, it’s nothing but flowers

[chorus 1]
there was a factory
now they’re just mountains and rivers
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

we caught a rattlesnake
now we’ve got something for dinner
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

there was a shopping mall
now it’s all covered with flowers
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

if this is paradise
i wish i had a lawn mower
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

[verse 2]
years ago
i was an angry young man
i’d pretend
that i was a billboard
standing tall
by the side of the road
i fell in love
with the beautiful highway
this used to be real estate, now it’s only fields and trees
where? where is the town?
now, it’s nothing but flowers

[bridge 1]
the highways and cars
were sacrificed for agriculture
i wish that we’d start over
but, i guess i was wrong

[chorus 2]
once there were parking lots
now it’s a peaceful oasis
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

this was a pizza hut
now it’s all covered with daises
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

i miss the honky tonks
dairy queens, and 7-elevens
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

and as things fell apart
n0body paid much attention
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

[instrumental bridge]

[chorus 3]
i dream of cherry pies
candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

we used to microwave
now we just eat nuts and berries
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

this was a discount store
now it’s turned into a cornfield
you’ve got it, you’ve got it

don’t leave me stranded here
i can’t get used to this lifestyle
