Someone's Been Sending Me Flowers |
| Someone’s been sending me flowers |
| Oh what a sweet thing to do |
| every new day brings another bouquet |
| but I just don’t know who to say thank you to |
| sometimes they’re thrown through my window |
| down through my chimney they fall |
| sometimes at night when I turn out the light |
| they come through a crack in the wall |
| now that my house is a garden |
| bursting with blossoms in bloom |
| I stand there for hours admiring my flowers |
| I’d like to lie down but there’s just isn’t room |
| someone’s been sending me flowers |
| more than I ever have had |
| remarkable stuff but enough is enough |
| if I see another bouquet I’ll go mad. |
| He started by sending me bluebells |
| oddly enough they were grey |
| each faded bloom had a nasty perfume |
| besides being grey they were papier-mâché |
| there followed a garden of fungus |
| and then as a tropical treat |
| he sent me a plant that proceeded to pant |
| and later began to eat meat |
| the cactus corsage touched me deeply |
| beautiful plant in its prime |
| I felt much the same when the rock garden came |
| one rock at a time |
| somebody madly adores me |
| I know not whom to suspect |
| since I cannot afford to be madly adored |
| I do wish you’d stop sending flowers |
| collect |
