(Nothing But) Flowers (Guster)

Here we stand Like Adam and an Eve Waterfall Garden of Eden Two fools in love So beautiful and strong The birds in the trees Are smiling upon them Since the age of the dinosaurs, Cars have run on gasoline. Where, where have they gone now? It's nothing but flowers There was a factory, Now there are mountains and rivers You got it, you got it We caught a rattlesnake, Now we've got something for dinner You got it, you got it This was a shopping mall, Now it's all covered with flowers You got it, you got it If this is paradise, I wish I had a lawnmower You got it, you got it Years ago I was an angrier man I pretend I was a billboard Standing tall By the side of the road I fell in love With the beautiful highway This used to be real estate Now it's only fields and trees Where, where is the town now? It's nothing but flowers The highway's cars All sacrificed for agriculture Guess we thought that we'd start over But I guess I was wrong Once there were parking lots, Now it's a peaceful oasis You got it, you got it This was a pizza hut, Now it's all covered in daisies You got it, you got it I miss the "Honky-Tonks" Dairy Queens and 7-11s You got it, you got it And as these fell apart, Nobody gave much attention You got it, you got it I dream of cherry pies, Candy bars and chocolate chip cookies You got it, you got it We used to microwave, Now we just eat nuts and berries You got it, you got it This was a discount store, Now it's turned into a cornfield You got it, you got it Don't leave me standing here, I can't get used to this lifestyle
