Sleeping In The Flowers Lyrics

    I got a crush
    Copy shop clerk
    But she won't look up at me
    Don't want to be known as the freak
    Who just comes around to catch her eye

    We could be sleeping in the flowers
    We could sleep all afternoon
    You'd proclaim that you're an island
    I'd proclaim that i'm one too
    Then we float into the harbor
    With just piers and boats around
    I declare that i am england
    You declare that i have drowned

    I got a ride
    Home with a drunk guy
    How ungrateful i must have seemed
    He showed me how
    To spin my head round and round

    We could be sleeping in the flowers
    We could sleep all afternoon
    You'd proclaim that you're an island
    I'd proclaim that i'm one too
    Then we float into the harbor
    With just piers and boats around
    I declare that i am england
    You declare that i have drowned

    We could be sleeping in the flowers
    We could sleep all afternoon
    You'd proclaim that you're an island
    I'd proclaim that i'm one too
    Then we float into the harbor
    With just piers and boats around
    I declare that i am england
    You declare that i have drowned

    We'll be sleeping in the flowers
    Tell my boss that i've been fired
    We'll be sleeping in the flowers
    Tell my boss that i've been fired
    We'll be sleeping in the flowers
    Tell my boss i'm fired
    We'll be sleeping in the flowers
    Tell my boss i'm fired




    Notes

    The dial-a-song lyrics are unclear. the following is the best guess at this time.

    Dogs' masters stay off 'em
    Bugs stay off 'em
    Dogs' masters stay off 'em
    Bugs stay off 'em

    Now we're sleeping in the flowers
    And we'll sleep all afternoon
    You proclaim that you're an island
    I proclaim that i'm one too

    Dogs' masters stay off 'em
    Bugs stay off 'em
    Dogs' masters stay off 'em
    Bugs stay off 'em

    Now we're sleeping in the flowers
    And we'll sleep all afternoon
    You proclaim that you're an island
    I proclaim that i'm one too

    Then we float into the harbor
    With our piers and boats around
    I declare that i am england
    You declare that i have drowned

    Now we're sleeping in the flowers
    And we'll sleep all afternoon
    You proclaim that you're an island
    I proclaim that i'm one too

    Then we float into the harbor
    With our piers and boats around
    I declare that i am england
    You declare that i have drowned
