Clerks II movie - (Nothing But) Flowers lyrics
rate meSong by Talking Heads<br /><br>
Here we stand<br>
Like an Adam and an Eve<br>
Waterfalls<br>
The Garden of Eden<br>
Two fools in love<br>
So beautiful and strong<br>
The birds in the trees<br>
Are smiling upon them<br>
From the age of the dinosaurs<br>
Cars have run on gasoline<br>
Where, where have they gone?<br>
Now, it's nothing but flowers<br>
<br>
There was a factory<br>
Now there are mountains and rivers<br>
you got it, you got it<br>
<br>
We caught a rattlesnake<br>
Now we got something for dinner<br>
we got it, we got it<br>
<br>
There was a shopping mall<br>
Now it's all covered with flowers<br>
you've got it, you've got it<br>
<br>
If this is paradise<br>
I wish I had a lawnmower<br>
you've got it, you've got it<br>
<br>
Years ago<br>
I was an angry young man<br>
I'd pretend<br>
That I was a billboard<br>
Standing tall<br>
By the side of the road<br>
I fell in love<br>
With a beautiful highway<br>
This used to be real estate<br>
Now it's only fields and trees<br>
Where, where is the town<br>
Now, it's nothing but flowers<br>
The highways and cars<br>
Were sacrificed for agriculture<br>
I thought that we'd start over<br>
But I guess I was wrong<br>
<br>
Once there were parking lots<br>
Now it's a peaceful oasis<br>
you got it, you got it<br>
<br>
This was a Pizza Hut<br>
Now it's all covered with daisies<br>
you got it, you got it<br>
<br>
I miss the honky tonks,<br>
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens<br>
you got it, you got it<br>
<br>
And as things fell apart<br>
Nobody paid much attention<br>
you got it, you got it<br>
<br>
I dream of cherry pies,<br>
Candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies<br>
you got it, you got it<br>
<br>
We used to microwave<br>
Now we just eat nuts and berries<br>
you got it, you got it<br>
<br>
This was a discount store,<br>
Now it's turned into a cornfield<br>
you got it, you got it<br>
<br>
Don't leave me stranded here<br>
I can't get used to this lifestyle<br>
<br>
