Lying around waiting for flowers to grow
Good things will come to those who wait
Is what I've been told
1988 in the hospital
Mom and Dad wait
Two Sisters I'll never know

When they plant me (I know)
When they plant me (I know)
Some flowers gonna grow

When they plant me (I know)
When they plant me (I know)
Some flowers gonna grow

You're just too full of yourself
Boy you been thinking too much
In a cemetery I see I got a green thumb
Peeking over the fence
You're eyeing up my problems
People would die to have mine
Lord, I'm including myself

Always trying to find a way out of
Everything that you love
You'll shrug off your shoulders
When they plant me (I know)
When they plant me (I know)
Some flowers gonna grow

When they plant me (I know)
When they plant me (I know)
Some flowers gonna grow

When they plant me (I know)
When they plant me (I know)
Some flowers gonna grow

When they plant me (I know)
When they plant me (I know)
Some flowers gonna grow

When they plant me (I know)
When they plant me (I know)
Some flowers gonna grow
