Blue Orchid
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.
You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn't you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid turned it blue
Something better than nothing
Something better than nothing, it's giving up
We all need to do something
Try keep the truth from showing up
How dare you
How are you now, anyway?
How dare you
How are you now, anyway?
You're given a flower
But I guess there's just no pleasing you
Your lips tastes sour
But you think that it's just me teasing you
You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn't you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid turned it blue
Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn't you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid turned it blue
