I Don't Want Your Flowers

I don't want your flowers
I don't want your money
I don't want your good love
Just leave me alone, honey

Your abuse is not excused by gifts
or cash
No, you're not allowed anywhere near my ass
I'm moving on from your stinking trash
Cuz I want a man who's got harmonic class

I want a music man
who'll sing me to sleep
when I'm in a jam
He'll touch me where you never can
he's an auditory apocalypse in a black Mercedes van

He mends my heart with waves by the sea
Even though he can't see me
Sounds so sweet, rhythmic and complex
I'm floating on tones
Slipping into passionate moans
Crying like Lucille
Oh please, let me heal
Let me lie next to you, friend
And be your Major Second

I don't want your flowers
I don't want your money
I don't want your good love
Just sing to me, honey
Just sing to me, honey
