| What do you mean by beauty lain
|
| I hope you know the consequences
|
| cos beauty wounds will make us strong
|
| With truth well test our old defenses
|
| And all my friends will make amends
|
| Theyre green and grey and gold and groovy
|
| And reconciled theyll shake and smile
|
| Smile at me as though they knew me And judge this world through jaundiced eyes
|
| Theyre sold too soon and none too wise
|
| Their big blue God is in the sky
|
| Orchid girl dont spend your money
|
| They asked me what the meek would get
|
| Pictured me afraid to answer
|
| I told them that when thoughts entombed
|
| Then love will show its root in cancer
|
| The sweet disorder in your eye
|
| Has drawn me here through graves and gardens
|
| Im going in youre going in here are your smokes
|
| Your jokes youre getting soaked Im angry and my Fists are pocketed
|
| Well judge this world through jaundiced eyes
|
| Were sold too soon and none too wise
|
| The big blue God is in the sky
|
| He takes the blame and never cries
|
| But orchid girl youd make my day
|
| Youd blow their cloud of crap away
|
| If you would just refuse to pay
|
| Orchid girl youd make my day |
