[Verse 1]
I was in third grade
Got a potted plant full of flowers
Ran home and gave them to my mom
She said that they were marigolds
What you call your garden-variety weed
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm a marigold
Oh, I'm a marigold
Oh, I'm a marigold
And you picked me
[Verse 2]
So anyway
I should buy my mom a bouquet
Just to say hey, I'm thinking about you today
That's right
Thinking about everything you did for me
Like always saying, "grace sets you free"
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm a marigold
Oh, I'm a marigold
Oh, I'm a marigold
And you picked me
[Bridge]
It's not sad anymore
It's not sad anymore
It's not sad anymore
[Refrain]
Nothing but the sun in your eyes
Nothing but the sun in your eyes
Nothing but the sun in your eyes
Nothing but the sun in your eyes
[Bridge]
If I ever do better than second place
I've gotta go and make a play for your heart
A dormant condition waking up on New Year's Day
[?]
[Refrain]
Nothing but the sun in your eyes
Nothing but the sun in your eyes
Nothing but the sun in your eyes
Nothing but the sun in your eyes
