I'm an ugly flower You're a pretty vase Pick me from this wasteland And put me in my place Shelter me when loneliness Wears liberation's face When baby wears a knee length dress And under that wears lace The circle goes on and on and on The circle goes on and on and on I've not seen the sunlight For one entire day I've not seen the sunlight For one hundred thousand days I dance into the dining room Wearing my best human face
I'm an ugly flower You're a pretty vase The circle goes on and on and on The circle goes on and on and on Out of the window And into the windowsill again Out of the window And into the wind and then The moon pulls the babes from the earth And the blue hounds from their dens We go out of the window And into the windowsill again I'm an ugly flower You're a pretty vase Pick me from this wasteland And put me in my place
