[Verse 1]
Safe in my garden
An ancient flower blooms
And the scent from its nature
Slowly squares my room
And its perfume being such
That it's causing me to swoon
[Verse 2]
(Safe in my garden) Could it be we were hot-wired, late one night we're very tired?
They stole our minds and thought we'd never know it (An ancient flower blooms)
(And the scent from its nature) With a bottle in each hand, too late to try to understand
We don't care where it lands, we just throw it (Slowly squares my room)
[Verse 3]
Somebody take us away
Somebody take us away
[Verse 4]
Safe in my garden (Could it be we were hot-wired, late one night we're very tired?)
An ancient flower blooms (They stole our minds and thought we'd never know it)
And the scent from its nature (With a bottle in each hand, too late to try to understand)
Slowly squares my room (We don't care where it lands, we just throw it)
[Verse 5]
And it's perfume being such (Somebody take us away)
That it's causing me to swoon
[Verse 6]
When you go out in the street
So many hassles with the heat;
No one there can fill your desire
Cops out with the megaphones
Telling people stay inside their home
Man, can't they see the world's on fire?
[Verse 7]
Somebody take us away, take us away
[Verse 8]
Safe in our garden
An ancient flower blooms
And the scent from its nature (Cops out with the megaphones, tellin' people stay inside their homes)
Slowly squares my room (Man, the world's on fire)
[Verse 9]
Take us away, take us away
