(Nothing But) Flowers Lyric Talking Heads POPULAR FAVORITES 1976-1992/

Here we stand
Like an Adam and an Eve
Waterfalls
The Garden of
Eden
Two fools in love
So beautiful and strong
The birds in the
trees
Are smiling upon them
From the age of the dinosaurs
Cars have run
on gasoline
Where, where have they gone?
Now, it's nothing but
flowers

There was a factory
Now there are mountains and rivers
you
got it, you got it

We caught a rattlesnake
Now we got something for
dinner
we got it, we got it

There was a shopping mall
Now it's all
covered with flowers
you've got it, you've got it

If this is
paradise
I wish I had a lawnmower
you've got it, you've got
it

Years ago
I was an angry young man
I'd pretend
That I was a
billboard
Standing tall
By the side of the road
I fell in love
With
a beautiful highway
This used to be real estate
Now it's only fields and
trees
Where, where is the town
Now, it's nothing but flowers
The
highways and cars
Were sacrificed for agriculture
I thought that we'd
start over
But I guess I was wrong

Once there were parking lots
Now
it's a peaceful oasis
you got it, you got it

This was a Pizza
Hut
Now it's all covered with daisies
you got it, you got it

I miss
the honky tonks,
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
you got it, you got
it

And as things fell apart
Nobody paid much attention
you got it,
you got it

I dream of cherry pies,
Candy bars, and chocolate chip
cookies
you got it, you got it

We used to microwave
Now we just eat
nuts and berries
you got it, you got it

This was a discount
store,
Now it's turned into a cornfield
you got it, you got
it

Don't leave me stranded here
I can't get used to this lifestyle
