Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Long stem things of beauty
Created by the good Lord
And cut down in the prime of their lives
[Verse 2]
Boxed up, wrapped in paper
Delivered to your front door
Just to wind up in your garbage can outside
[Verse 3]
Tell me how many flowers have to die
Before you give this love another try
I've asked you to forgive me, at least nine dozen times
Tell me how many flowers have to die
[Verse 4]
I'm crazy and I'm desperate
I had you and I blew it
And right now, I've got nothing left to lose
[Verse 5]
I've got a Visa in my wallet
And I'm not afraid to use it
How long the needless violence lasts
Is really up to you
[Verse 6]
Tell me how many flowers have to die
Before you give this love another try
I've asked you to forgive me, at least ten dozen times
Tell me how many flowers have to die
[Verse 7]
Stop the senseless killing
Can't you hear those roses cry?
Baby, how many flowers have to die?
Tell me how many flowers have to die
