Garden

You know of Adam
And you've heard about Eve
The divine predicament that they both shared
He said do whatever but
Don't eat from this here tree
Swiftly ruined a plan so rare

Not east of Eden
Not west of there, either
Still gets its fill
From many rivers
There's another garden, the Lord not its keeper
And the thought of it makes Him quiver

Supernatural flowers
Pay received by the hour
The garden of money-making, land-buying, car-selling
It'll own you if you let it
Lord forbid you have no credit
There are far more snakes than just one

Not east of Eden
Not west of there, either
Still gets its fill
From many rivers
There's another garden, the Lord not its keeper
And the thought of it makes Him quiver

I'm no daytime scholar
Learning to think without a collar
But I'll spew out my confidence while I'm able
'Cuz I don't know how long I'll last
I could forget my advice and lose all my cash
After all, I'm only hiding 'hind a mask

Not east of Eden
Not west of there, either
Still gets its fill
From many rivers
There's another garden, the Lord not its keeper
And the thought of it makes Him quiver
