[Verse 1: Ryan Miller/Miller & Adam Gardner]
Here we stand
Like an Adam and an Eve
Waterfalls
The Garden of Eden
Two fools in love
So beautiful and strong
The birds in the trees
Are smiling upon them
From the age of the dinosaurs
Cars have run on gasoline
Where, where have they gone?
Now, it's nothing but flowers

[Chorus 1: Miller & Gardner]
There was a factory
Now there are mountains and rivers
You got it, you got it
We caught a rattlesnake
Now we got something for dinner
You got it, you got it
This was a shopping mall
Now it's all covered with flowers
You got it, you got it
If this is paradise
I wish I had a lawnmower
You got it, you got it
[Verse 2: Miller/Miller & Gardner]
Years ago
I was an angry young man
I'd pretend
That I was a billboard
Standing tall
By the side of the road
And I fell in love
With a beautiful highway
This used to be real estate
Now it's only fields and trees
Where, where is the town
Now, it's nothing but flowers

[Bridge: Miller]
The highways and cars
Sacrificed for agriculture
Guess we thought that we'd start over
But I guess I was wrong

[Chorus 2: Miller & Gardner]
Once there were parking lots
Now it's a peaceful oasis
You got it, you got it
This was a Pizza Hut
Now it's all covered with daisies
You got it, you got it
I miss the honky tonks
Dairy Queens, and 7-Elevens
You got it, you got it
And as things fell apart
Nobody paid much attention
You got it, you got it
[Outro: Miller & Gardner]
I dream of cherry pies
Candy bars, and chocolate chip cookies
We got it, we got it
We used to microwave
Now we just eat nuts and berries
We got it, we got it
This was a discount store
Now it's turned into a cornfield
We got it, we got it
Don't leave me stranded here
I can't get used to this lifestyle
