Coming Up Roses

Hard to muster courage

When disaster hits home

Look forward to nothing

But being aloneYou're coming up roses

With stems in your hair

You're climbing that staircase

Your conscience unmannedWay to land a job like that

You're gaining all your dignity back

Oo we saw you growing

No way you've been thinking of me whenCarving up roses

With barely a care

Seem so damn precocious

The petals so blandComing up roses

With stems in your hair

You're climbing that staircase

Your conscience unmannedCarving up roses

With barely a care

Look so damn atrocious

With nettles in hand
