The Garden

Roger Hodgson

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?
