Lyrics The Flower Man - Rubblebucket

The Flower Man

My love forsaken in an ancient dream
You tried to put a curse on me
Paste weird poison outside my door
In the night, what you chanting for?
Through the mountains, below the woods
Three little watch men with golden hoods
Curse is here and I don’t feel a bump
I guess your magic don’t work when you’re drunk
Hold on!
Your love is strong
But you need to hold it back
Before you lose somebody you love
You got the thickest skin
So put something in it
La la la love your body
Before you lose somebody you love
Place your face into your flowered hands
Breathe in deep cuz you got new plans
Push your fingers up through your pores
If this is love then I don’t want no more
Wipe the sorrow from your drunken eyes
Clean the stains from your church-worn ties
Be the man you said you’d be
Hold on!
Your love is strong
But you need to hold it back
Before you lose somebody you love
You got the thickest skin
So put something in it
La la la love your body
Before you lose somebody you love
