The Mamas & the Papas - Safe in My Garden lyrics

Safe in my garden,

An ancient flower blooms.

And the scent from its nature

Slowly squares my room;

And its perfume being such

that it抯 causing me to swoon.

Could it be we were hot-wired?

(Safe in my garden, an ancient flower blooms...)

Late one night; we抮e very tired.

They stole our minds and thought we抎 never know it.

(And the scent from its nature slowly squares my room...)

With a bottle in each hand; too late to try to understand.

We don抰 care where it lands---we just throw it.

Somebody take us away...

Somebody take us away...

Safe in my garden,

(Could it be we were hot-wired; late one night we抮e very tired...)

An ancient flower blooms.

(They stole our minds and thought we抎 never know it...)

And the scent from its nature

(With a bottle in each hand; too late to try to understand...)

Slowly squares my room.

(We don抰 care where it lands---we just throw it...)

(Somebody take us away...)

And it抯 perfume being such

That it抯 causing me to swoon.

When you go out in the street,

So many hassles with the heat;

No one there can fill your desire.

Cops out with the megaphones,

Telling people stay inside their home.

Man, can抰 they see the world抯 on fire?

Somebody take us away...take us away...

Safe in our garden,

An ancient flower blooms.

And the scent from its nature...

(Cops out with the megaphones;

Tellin?people stay inside their homes.)

Man, the world抯 on fire.)

Slowly squares my room.

Take us away...take us away...
