Lyrics My Green Thumb - Michelle Malone

My Green Thumb

You hand me life to hold on to
Now I’ve got a lock without a clue
I’ve got a guitar but I haven’t got any blues
You drove your car into the rail
Hey, little star, your engine failed
You lack the luster, dull and pale
But I cannot shine for you
Talk to me — that’s what you came to do
But you just stand there without a clue
I’ve got a guitar but I have no diagnosis for you
Space invader, little quasar
Oh, how I wonder what you are
You can’t get where you’re going to
Still I cannot take you
I’ve got a spot out back where I’ve taken my shovel
I’ve got a spot out back that’s taking all of my time
I’ve got a plot out back if I should run into trouble
So don’t give me anything to hold
You keep your diary in bold
I never said I wanted to
But you just assumed…
I’ve got a garden where I — am growing patients
And my green thumb has become… has come undone
I’ve got a garden where I’m — growing impatient
Oh, my green thumb has become… has come undone
I’ve got a garden where I — am growing patients
Oh, my green thumb has become… has come undone
I’ve got a garden where I’m — growing impatient
Oh, my green thumb has become
