Wildflower - Noa[00:00:00]
Written by:Doug Edwards/Dave Richardson[00:00:00]
In a tenement near the Henry Hudson river[00:00:25]
From my favorite spot on a rusting fire escape[00:00:29]
I would look below[00:00:34]
And see Mario[00:00:36]
Braving the ferocious dandelions[00:00:39]
Mario our fearless superintendent[00:00:43]
Kept the garden green despite the parkway smog[00:00:47]
But the flowering weeds[00:00:51]
Their fates decreed[00:00:54]
Pulled to keep his rosebush from dying[00:00:57]
Then I would creep inside curl up in my bed[00:01:01]
Something strong was pulling at my head[00:01:06]
Pulling at my mind[00:01:09]
Pulling at my heart[00:01:11]
Wild flower growing in all the wrong places[00:01:15]
Wild flower so lonely neath that lovely rose bush[00:01:19]
Proper garden's nightmare queen of opened fields[00:01:23]
Tell me who will love this wildflower[00:01:27]
For exactly what she is[00:01:32]
Years passed by we left that red brick building[00:01:45]
Left Mario behind[00:01:48]
For a brand new house[00:01:50]
But my dark brown skin[00:01:52]
On the white washed walls within[00:01:55]
Stood out so it'd get me up and crying[00:01:58]
My growing pains had many rooms to fill then[00:02:01]
Mother never know[00:02:05]
Had a garden to keep clean[00:02:07]
While there was any grease[00:02:09]
On her young flower from the middle east[00:02:13]
She was busy pulling declensions[00:02:15]
Then I would creep inside curl up in my bed[00:02:19]
Something strong was pulling at my head[00:02:24]
Pulling at my mind[00:02:27]
Pulling at my heart[00:02:29]
Wild flower growing in all the wrong places[00:02:33]
Wild flower so lowly neath that lovely rosebush[00:02:37]
Proper garden's nightmare queen of opened fields[00:02:41]
Tell me who will love this wildflower[00:02:45]
For exactly what she is wildflower growing in all the wrong places[00:02:50]
Wild flower so lowly neath that lovely rosebush[00:02:57]
Proper garden's nightmare queen of opened fields[00:03:01]
Who will love this wildflower[00:03:05]
For exactly what she is[00:03:10]
Wild flower wild flower[00:04:04]
