These Flowers

These flowers are coming up wild
 They're coming up, they're coming up
 They're coming up wild
 These flowers are coming up wild
 They're coming up, they're coming up
 They're coming up wild
 They are like those children
 Go off to school and don't come back
 And I am like their mother
 Waiting around about to crack
 Crack
 Crack
 I want them back
 Crack
 Crack
 I want them back
 Back
 Back
 Back
 You are like a flower
 You rise and rise to the sun
 You do not look back at where you came from
 I wanna be like that
 That
 That
 That
 And the boys they run faster
 And they throw harder
 And they get stronger
 And they are gone, they are gone, they are gone
 I wanna be like that
 That
 That
 That
 And the girls they are pretty
 And they get silly
 When they get giddy
 And they are gone, they are gone, they are gone
 I wanna be like that
 That
 I'm on my knees in the corner
 Wiping my floor, wiping my floor, yeah
 And they are gone, they are gone, they are gone
 I wanna be like that
 That
 That
 That
 These flowers are coming up wild
 They're coming up, they're coming up
 They're coming up wild
