If I could divide the smell of flowers
I'd send some to the falsely charged
Locked in prison cells
Send some to the lonely seniors
Trapped in apartment hells
Send some to the weary miners
Sweating beneath the ground
Send some to the invisible people
Hauling our garbage round
Some answers in life are so easy
Like zero plus zero is none
But how do we divide the smell of flowers
So their fragrance is shared by everyone?
Everywhere
If I could divide the smell of flowers
I'd pa** some to the frightened animals
Caged against their wills
Pa** some to the dying birds
Choking on oil spills
Pa** some to the angry kids
Sniffing up airplane glue
Pa** some to the crying widow
Missing the Love she knew
If I could divide the smell of flowers
Then you'd always have your share
If I could divide the smell of flowers
There'd be sweetness around you
Everywhere
