lyrics

Petunia had a hole in her belly
and she filled it up with anger and bad things
and those seeds began to grow
but she walked on and let it go

Petunias got a feel for the lonely
and the voices in her head keep her company
in the dirt there's little hope
and those roots are hard to kill

but every smile that she shares is beautiful and delicious
Petunia's got her thorns
you know that girl is pretty vicious

Petunia, how the hell does your garden grow
I'd like to say but I don't think that I really know
Is it the people that meet, is it the people on the street
is it the people inside your head?
Is it the people all about, is it the people in your house
is it the people inside your bed?
Oh No!

and Petunia, yeah she already knows
that her leaves are not going to go
"It's not that we don't want you to grow"
"but we're cutting down your chlorophyll"

Well the cracks are just beginning to show
nearly drowned in what the dirt couldn't soak
Now she's wilting in the sun
and she's stuck on a windowsill

She says, fill me up, Buttercup, fill me up delicious
there's a price we have to pay for all my pretty little kisses

Petunia, how the hell does your garden grow
I'd like to say but I don't think that I really know
Is it the people that meet, is it the people on the street
is it the people inside your head?
Is it the people all about, is it the people in your house
is it the people inside your bed?
Oh no, I think that I would like to meet you there
Oh no, I think that I would like to meet you there

but every smile that she shares is beautiful and delicious
Petunia's got her thorns
you know that girl is pretty vicious

Petunia, how the hell does your garden grow
I'd like to say but I don't think that I really know
Is it the people that meet, is it the people on the street
is it the people inside your head?
Is it the people all about, is it the people in your house
is it the people inside your bed?
Oh no, I think that I would like to meet you there
Oh no, I think that I would like to meet you there
