Roses

Rose said quote, "It's time to make a mess

Time will be soon mine, in time I guess"

She's painting on my back a beautiful flowerpot

And she treats me, she treats me

She treats me like her local God

Rose said quote, "It's time to make a mess

This one's yours and yours is self obsessed"

She's painting on my back

A green tom, the beefheart one

And she cuddles, and she coos

And she cuts the bullshit I confessed

She said, "Don't look my way"

What can I possibly say

I've never seen you before

I'm just the one that makes you think of the one

That makes you feel you're the one"

To thank you for the roses

For the roses

So thank you for the roses

For the roses

Thank you for the roses

For the roses

Thank you for the roses

For the roses

Rose said quote, "It's time to make a mess

Remind me what it is that I do best"

She's painting on my back, some beautiful, something sweet

And she treats me, she treats me, she beats me

Rose said quote, "My time has come at last

Ugly things through my mind, they have passed"

She's scratching on my back, "If this boy believes me"

She leaves me, deceives me and takes those flowers

Just to please me

Rose don't mind where she's been

She's been blind

She's been mine

All this time

She's been kind

She's been mine

She said, "Thank you for the roses, for the roses" (just to...)

Thank you for the roses

For the roses (just to...)

Thank you for the roses

For the roses (just to...)

Thank you for the roses

For the roses (just to...)

Thank you for the roses

For the roses (just to...)

Thank you for the roses

For the roses (just to...)

Thank you
