Flowerpot Men

One morning you cracked my heart open
Like you were making a fried egg
I said you shouldn’t start, twisting the lid on the jar of regrets
So you got the cheap seats, but a free bucket of sweets!
And they rehoused you on a star
The view must be great from where you are

Oh I’ll be pushing up the daisies
We’ll be flowerpot men, we’ll all be flowerpot men

One evening you wrapped me up in a blanket
Told me I was an angel
Sent from up above
Down to protect you
And to help you get through this land of the deaf
Cos sometimes it can get so hard you wish you were dancing on a star

Oh I’ll be pushing up the daisies, we’ll all be flowerpot men, we’ll all be flowerpot men
