Lilies of The Valley — текст песни (David Byrne)

Momma she had complications

Theres nothing very strange about that

Nuns said "we cant kill that baby

Well have to let your mother die"



We are all just lilies of the valley

We neither reap nor sow

We need to get our hands a little dirty

To make our gardens grow, hey hey



Way too many people on this island

Getting way too crowded on this boat

Need someone to bail some water

If were gonna keep this thing afloat



I like a little sugar in my coffee

I dont mean sweet n low

You dont know what you want until you find it

I believe youll tell me so



I need a little water in my garden

I need a little sunlight on my head

I need someone to cover me with kisses

When Im all alone and scared



We are all just lilies of the valley

We neither reap nor sow

We need to get our hands a little dirty

To make our gardens grow



I like a little sugar in my coffee

I dont mean sweet n low

I - like to cover me with kisses

To make my garden grow
