Dandelion
All my life I thought I was the one to save the world,
It would come easy.
Now I'm old enough to sit around and piss and moan instead.
Save a tree and I will gladly admire its beauty,
10 to 12 inches.
Don't expect that I will get out of my chair to see it grow.
And I was a blooming flower
Blossoming from the seed.
And I was a blooming flower.
Turn my back and turn to...
Weed.
Those are people with them votes and all them hippie thoughts.
They do it better.
If I got involved I'd only get in everybody's way.
Shine my shoe and I won't say a thing behind your back.
Yeah, we're all brothers.
Don't expect that I will share my plate when your ribs start to show.
And I was a blooming flower
Blossoming from the seed.
And I was a blooming flower.
Turn my back and turn to...
Dandelion, Dandelion
Souls of you and me.
How can you smell so bad but look so pretty?
And I was a blooming flower
Blossoming from the seed.
And I was a blooming flower.
Turn my back and--
I was a blooming flower
Blossoming from the seed.
And I was a blooming flower.
Turn my back and turn to--
Turn my back and turn to--
Turn my back and turn to...
Weed.
Diente de león
Toda mi vida pensé que era el elegido para salvar al mundo,
Que sería fácil.
Ahora soy lo suficientemente viejo como para sentarme y quejarme en lugar de hacer algo.
Salva un árbol y lo admiraré con gusto,
De 10 a 12 pulgadas.
No esperes que me levante de mi silla para verlo crecer.
Y yo era una flor floreciente
Brotando desde la semilla.
Y yo era una flor floreciente.
Doy la espalda y me convierto en...
Mala hierba.
Esas son personas con sus votos y todos esos pensamientos hippies.
Lo hacen mejor.
Si me involucrara, solo estorbaría a todos.
Lustra mis zapatos y no diré nada a tus espaldas.
Sí, somos todos hermanos.
No esperes que comparta mi plato cuando tus costillas empiecen a mostrarse.
Y yo era una flor floreciente
Brotando desde la semilla.
Y yo era una flor floreciente.
Doy la espalda y me convierto en...
Diente de león, Diente de león
Almas tuyas y mías.
¿Cómo puedes oler tan mal pero lucir tan bonito?
Y yo era una flor floreciente
Brotando desde la semilla.
Y yo era una flor floreciente.
Doy la espalda y--
Yo era una flor floreciente
Brotando desde la semilla.
Y yo era una flor floreciente.
Doy la espalda y--
Doy la espalda y--
Doy la espalda y...
Mala hierba.
