Flower man, flower man
E F# G
When are you gonna grow
E F# G
When you gonna lay down
E F# G
Everything you know
Flower man, flower man
How you gonna sleep
With all these people
Cutting down your feet
A B C
Flower man
A B C
Flower man
Flower man, flower man
Your head's above the rest
If you're gonna trust them
You gotta past the test
Flower man, flower man
You're living in the sun
Shattered and hollow
You shine for everyone
B C
They're given enough to hurt you
B C
With all the things they say
B C
So you put on your armor
B C
And stand in the way
You're wearing the target
That took so long to earn
And your start looking sideways
At every turn
You start looking sideways
At every turn
