[Verse 1] Oh, look at you, darling— A statue in the hall, A marble masterpiece Of nothing much at all. I’d offer you a seat, But the velvet’s far too clean. And you’re the greyest smudge That I have ever seen. [Chorus] Get lost in the garden, Get lost in the weeds. I’m planting orchids, And you’re just spilling seeds. Oh, I hope you’re gonna Find the exit soon, Because you’re blocking out The light of my moon. [Verse 2] I heard you’re writing, A tragic little tale Of how the wind was biting And your spirit was so frail. You’re like a wilted lily In a vase of poisoned gin. Waiting for a miracle To let the sunlight in. [Chorus] Get lost in the garden, Get lost in the weeds. I’m planting orchids, And you’re just spilling seeds. Oh, I hope you’re gonna Find the exit soon, Because you’re blocking out The light of my afternoon. [Verse 3] Nice try, but the stage Is getting cramped. The fire’s roaring high, And your little damped. Take your hat, take your coat, Take your "well-intended" lies. There’s no room for a ghost When the mood is on the rise. [Chorus] Get lost in the garden, Get lost in the weeds. I’m planting orchids, And you’re just spilling seeds. Oh, I hope you’re gonna Find the exit soon, Because you’re blocking out The light of my afternoon. [Outro] Go find a new stage, Go find a new crowd. I’m turning up the music, And it’s far too loud For a whisper like you, For a shadow in the hall. You’re just a tiny brick In a very high wall.
