These flowers are coming up wild
They're coming up, they're coming up
They're coming up wild


These flowers are coming up wild
They're coming up, they're coming up

They're coming up wild

They are like those children

Go off to school & don't come back
And I am like their mother
Waiting around about to crack

Crack
Crack
I want them back

Crack
Crack
I want them back

Back
Back
Back


You are like a flower
You rise & rise to the sun

You do not look back at where you came from
I wanna be like that
That

That
That


And the boys they run faster
And they throw harder
And they get stronger

And they are gone, they are gone, they are gone
I wanna be like that
That

That
That


And the girls they are pretty
And they get silly
When they get giddy

And they are gone, they are gone, they are gone
I wanna be like that
That


I'm on my knees in the corner
Wiping my floor, wiping my floor, yeah

And they are gone, they are gone, they are gone
I wanna be like that
That

That
That


These flowers are coming up wild
They're coming up, they're coming up
They're coming up wild
