Some say there are better days
Some think there are different ways
Wise men don't believe in roses

This world has so many lies
They've made me realize
That the fruits are hanging on the trees in my garden

So you know where I'll go
When I can't handle all the things in the world
A good show, Calypso's singing
I don't waste a minute

People go wherever they go
I've lost control so long ago but now
I'll have a drink in my garden

People do whatever they do
I'm sorry for my pessimist view but you
You can stay in my garden

In '91 you shot a gun
In '94 there was a war
While the snails were slowly creeping in my garden

In '97 I fell out of my heaven
In '98 I chose your fate
In '99 I felt so fine
Cause I didn't care about the sign of the times
People go wherever they go
I've lost control so long ago but now
I'll have a drink in my garden

People do whatever they do
I'm sorry for my pessimist view but you
You can stay in my garden
Together we'll be whistling

So you know where I'll go
When I can't handle all the things in the world
A good show, Calypso's singing
I don't waste a minute

People go wherever they go
I've lost control so long ago but now
I'll have a drink in my garden

People do whatever they do
I'm sorry for my pessimist view but you
You can stay in my garden
And everybody's singing
