Lyrics Roger Hodgson

Roger Hodgson

The Garden

Walk around the garden

choking at the weeds

Won't you come and help me try

and sow some seeds

All the trees are weeping

branches hanging low

Seems as if they know

that they haven't long to go

All the world's a funfair

hide behind your mask

Say that you're enjoying it if anybody asks

Don't believe in sinners

don't believe in sin

Love is all the answers

so why don't we begin

Taking up the story that Jesus told

It's older than the years

All the seeds he planted have blossomed

Into concrete walls of fear

Lying in the gutter

gazing at the stars

Like to send a letter to the men on Mars

Asking if they'd help us

help us if they could

Come and weed this garden

or do you think they should?
