Flowers

[Verse 1]
Big cars, film-stars
Life on Mars, what's new?
Short sleeves, no breeze
Yellow melting inside blue

[Chorus]
Have you seen the girl on the corner?
She's holding flowers for me
Black lady laughing on Main Street
I laugh too

[Verse 2]
Words straighten curls
Boy meets girl, what's new?
Words come unturned
Lessons learned by me and you

[Verse 3]
She likes the way he combs her hair
Love feels true
Games down Henna Lane
Simple things to do

[Chorus]
Have you seen the girl on the corner?
She's holding flowers for me
Black lady laughing on Main Street
Makes me laugh too

[Chorus 2]
Have you seen the boy on the corner?
He's bought some flowers for me
Blind man asleep on the porch
Wears flowers too

[Verse 1]
Cars, big film-stars
Life on Mars, what's new?
Short sleeves, no breeze
Yellow melting inside blue

[Verse 4]
I know what this
All means, to me
You play to gain
Not to give away, what's new?
