Garage Flower
My mother was a mail order bride
My father was a fool till the day he died
So is it any wonder I'm not good enough for you?
I'm just gonna leave these garage flowers and push on through
Hey honey I was wondering where you've been
Cause if you don't ring the bell then you won't get in
I'm not getting any younger waiting home alone for you
If you're just gonna leave your garage flowers and push on through
Hey baby I'll never live up to you in your ivory tower there's not enough room for two
Not for me and you
So I sing you my second rate serenade, I bring you half cut flowers and I'm half afraid of you
But I'm half in love
Said with a cough and the price scratched off
My mother only ran with the chosen few
And she would not approve of a man like you
She was never happy all alone, with a bird's eye view
And me I wouldn't mind if you took down just a peg or two
I don't want too much and I don't know what I need
And a bar on a Friday night is about my speed
So meet me in the middle baby, come on down just a peg or two
And we can take a walk around some common ground just me and you
Hey baby I'll never live up to you in your ivory tower there's not enough room for two
Not for me and you
So I sing you my second rate serenade, I bring you half cut flowers and I'm half afraid of you
But I'm half in love
Said with a cough and the sticker pulled off
My father was a fool till the day he died
So is it any wonder I'm not good enough for you?
I'm just gonna leave these garage flowers and push on through
Hey honey I was wondering where you've been
Cause if you don't ring the bell then you won't get in
I'm not getting any younger waiting home alone for you
If you're just gonna leave your garage flowers and push on through
Hey baby I'll never live up to you in your ivory tower there's not enough room for two
Not for me and you
So I sing you my second rate serenade, I bring you half cut flowers and I'm half afraid of you
But I'm half in love
Said with a cough and the price scratched off
My mother only ran with the chosen few
And she would not approve of a man like you
She was never happy all alone, with a bird's eye view
And me I wouldn't mind if you took down just a peg or two
I don't want too much and I don't know what I need
And a bar on a Friday night is about my speed
So meet me in the middle baby, come on down just a peg or two
And we can take a walk around some common ground just me and you
Hey baby I'll never live up to you in your ivory tower there's not enough room for two
Not for me and you
So I sing you my second rate serenade, I bring you half cut flowers and I'm half afraid of you
But I'm half in love
Said with a cough and the sticker pulled off
