lyrics

VERSE 1:
Sow, sow your seeds now, sister
Don’t let the roots get dry
Just tend to your garden of little white lies
How they grow, grow so high

VERSE 2:
Oh, such a lovely flower
With a smell like it’s dead inside
Come dance in your garden of little white lies
How they grow, grow so high

PC:
I, I miss you, oh my love
Let’s get together soon, together soon
And we’ll have co-o-offee when we get together soon
Let’s get together soon, oh my love

CHORUS:
Pick the flowers one by one and give them away
Let ‘em believe that you’re somebody you’re not
Pick the flowers one by one and give them away
You won’t be sorry if you don’t get caught

VERSE 3:
Look how the weeds get tangled
Strange how you’re trapped inside
You’re lost in your garden of little white lies
And they’ll grow till you die

PC:
I love your dress, where did you get it, love?
Let’s be the best of friends, let’s play pretend
We’ll build a ho-o-ouse of branches that will never bend
We’ll be the best of friends, oh my love

CHORUS (2x, 2nd time round)

VERSE 4:
Sow, sow your seeds now, sister
You can’t cut ‘em down, even if you try
Just tend to your garden of little white lies
How they grow, grow so high
