Life is simple. Life is sweet.
Oh, so saddle up and go.
Little cowgirl, in the underground,
she talks to people she doesn’t know.

Oh, people on the train to Eden
The circus girl, after all the rodeos,
she settles down alone.
She planted flowers in her basement
so she has a little color when the sky runs low.

  She likes the weather today
  She said “It’s rainin’ in my head”
  All of the flowers I’ve raised
  Come up a little cloudy

Life is bitter. Life is cheap.
The cowgirl settles down alone.
Yeah, ten years out of Eden now
She’s got a little garden of her very own.

Now, now, now, now, now. . .

Step right up! Step right up!
All the circus fires are gone
and the basement lights are on.
You know that all she really wants is just one flower,
clear of color, in a garden,
in a room of her own.

Hey Hey Hey Hey
“Let’s go down to the underground”
she says
“I wanna wanna wanna shake, shake, shake, shake, shake my blades”
All of a sudden she says
“I feel a little lonely”

Oh my darlin’ Oh Oh Oh my darlin’ girl.
Oh my starvin’ Oh Oh Oh my starvin’ world.
Life is bitter. Life is cheap.
She rises from the circus seat
leaves the flowers all alone
now everything is overgrown!
