Dandelion Lyrics - Tracy Bonham

All my life I thought 

I was the one to save the world 

It would come easy, now I'm old enough 

To sit around and piss and moan instead 

Save a tree and I will gladly admire 

Its beauty, 10 to 12 inches 

Don't expect that I will get out 

Of my chair to see it grow 

And I was a blooming flower 

Blossoming from the seed 

And I was a blooming flower 

Turn my back and turn to weed 

Those are people with them votes 

And all them hippie thoughts 

They do it better, if I got involved 

I'd only get in everybody's way 

Shine my shoe and I won't say a thing 

Behind your back, yeah, we're all brothers 

Don't expect that I will share my plate 

When your ribs start to show 

And I was a blooming flower 

Blossoming from the seed 

And I was a blooming flower 

Turn my back and turn to 

Dandelion, Dandelion 

Souls of you and me 

How can you smell so bad 

But look so pretty? 

And I was a blooming flower 

Blossoming from the seed 

And I was a blooming flower 

Turn my back and 

I was a blooming flower 

Blossoming from the seed 

And I was a blooming flower 

Turn my back and turn to 

Turn my back and turn to 

Turn my back and turn to weed
