Lyric Atomic Garden
everybody wants to dance in a playpen
but nobody wants to play in my garden
i see the hippies on an angry line
guess they don t get my meaning
i m enchanted by the birds in my blossoms
i m enamored by young lovers on the weekend
i like the fourth of july
when bombs start flashing
and i wish i had a shiny red top
a bugle with a big brass bell would cheer me up
or maybe something bigger that could really go pop!
so i could make the gardening stop
come out to play
come out to play
and we ll pretend it s christmas day
in my atomic garden
all my scientists are working on a deadline
so my psychologist is working day and nighttime
they say they know what s best for me
but they don t know what there doing
and i m glad i m not gorbachev
cause i d wiggle all night
like jelly in a pot
at least he s got a garden with a fertile plot
and a party that will never stop
i hope there s nothing wrong out there
i m watching from my room inside my room
but nobody wants to play in my garden
i see the hippies on an angry line
guess they don t get my meaning
i m enchanted by the birds in my blossoms
i m enamored by young lovers on the weekend
i like the fourth of july
when bombs start flashing
and i wish i had a shiny red top
a bugle with a big brass bell would cheer me up
or maybe something bigger that could really go pop!
so i could make the gardening stop
come out to play
come out to play
and we ll pretend it s christmas day
in my atomic garden
all my scientists are working on a deadline
so my psychologist is working day and nighttime
they say they know what s best for me
but they don t know what there doing
and i m glad i m not gorbachev
cause i d wiggle all night
like jelly in a pot
at least he s got a garden with a fertile plot
and a party that will never stop
i hope there s nothing wrong out there
i m watching from my room inside my room
