Lyrics
Bring me Daisies
(written by Crystal Campbell)
verse 1
There are so many flowers to chose from. There are so many flowers they sell.
So, why in the world does it seem like every time I get flowers it?s a . . .rose.
I?ll tell you the truth now, I?ll tell you right here. I?ll tell you the truth now,
though it may not be what you want to hear.
chorus
Oh, I don?t really like roses. No, I can?t stand the smell.
Oh, I don?t really like roses. So, bring me daisies or tulips instead.
verse 2
There aren?t too many people in this world like me. In fact I?ve met no one at all.
But, I?d rather be a bird of paradise, than just another rose on the wall.
Don?t try to change me, to be like everybody else.
What boring world this would be, if flowers only had one smell.
chorus
Oh, I don?t really like roses. No, I can?t stand the smell.
Oh, I don?t really like roses. So, bring me daisies or tulips instead.
bridge
bring me daisies
bring me tulips
bring me birds of paradise
bring me wildflowers
so bring me daisies or tulips instead (3x)
