Flowers* lyrics

Don't these soldiers look so funny wearing flowers in their hair?

Poor little flower child, wild eyes and crazy hair

Running around in search of love, he can’t find that anywhere

Give him flowers

Flowers

What’s wrong with you?

What's going on in me?

I tried to walk on water, but the ocean was too rough

The crystal ship it overflowed and the going was too tough

We need flowers

Flowers

What’s wrong with you?

They're missing up our world

Where were all the soldiers gone?

Long time passing, dying in walls everywhere

I heard back in ’65 they wore flowers in their hair,

In a place called San Francisco, I think I’ll go there

What the world needs now is so much love

It's the only thing that it just

Too little love

What's wrong with this world?

What's going on in this world?

Soldiers fighting a war

They've got hatred in their eyes

Violence is the living

Our irruence their whole lives

They need flowers

Flowers

What's wrong with you?

What's going on inside me?

Build me a wall of love that's high

Build me a wall

What's wrong with this place?

We're missing up our world

Young boys wearing crew cuts

They've got anger in their eyes

Violence is their language

And they're missing up their drives

They need flowers

Flowers

What's wrong with this world, daddy?

Oh, what's wrong with this world, mother?

Oh, what's wrong with this world, father?

What is?

What's wrong with this world, brother?

We need flowers

Flowers, Oh, don't we need flowers?

Flowers...
