Lyrics

Poppy

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

I laid on a poppy

It laid on me

A lot of thinking

And did it all for free

I thought of you…..

I thought of you

I wanted to swim in the river

But I saw what they had done

All the fish are dying in there

and we ain't got no sun

I thought of you…..

I thought of you

I wandered in a meadow

All that rubbish there

Look at them with the plastic picnic

Talking 'bout the length of my hair

I laid on a poppy

It laid on me

A lot of thinking

And did it all for free

I thought of you…..

I thought of you

I wanted to swim in the river

But I saw what they had done

All the fish are dying in there

And we ain't got no sun

I thought of you…..

I thought of you

I'm gonna take a walk in the country

Take a look at that big blue sky

Take a breath of that clean spring air

Before they say die

I thought of you…..

I thought of you
