David Byrne - Lilies of The Valley Lyrics

Momma she had complications There’s nothing very strange about that Nuns said "we can’t kill that baby We’ll have to let your mother die" We are all just lilies of the valley We neither reap nor sow We need to get our hands a little dirty To make our gardens grow, hey hey Way too many people on this island Getting way too crowded on this boat Need someone to bail some water If we’re gonna keep this thing afloat I like a little sugar in my coffee I don’t mean sweet ’n’ low You don’t know what you want until you find it I believe you’ll tell me so I need a little water in my garden I need a little sunlight on my head I need someone to cover me with kisses When I’m all alone and scared We are all just lilies of the valley We neither reap nor sow We need to get our hands a little dirty To make our gardens grow I like a little sugar in my coffee I don’t mean sweet ’n’ low I - like to cover me with kisses To make my garden grow David Byrne Lyrics Lilies of The Valley Lyrics
