Lyrics
One Little Flower More Or Less
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.
One little flower more or less: who cares?
One little hour more or less upstairs...
When everybody loves you, nobody ever loves you.
One little dancer doesn't dance: so what?
One little slut doesn't put out: what slut?
One tree falls in the forest. Fine.
Let the little whore rest.
Who'd ever want to say, "She's mine"?
Who'd ever wed a concubine?
One little flower more or less? Don't laugh.
One little coward tears her dress in half.
Nobody in the world cries when one little flower dies...
