(please, please, don't eat the daisies,
don't eat the daisies, please please!)

Please, please, don't eat the daisies,
Don't eat the daisies, please please!
Here I am, waitin'
And anticipatin'
The kisses that I'll get from you!

(don't eat the daisies, please please!)

Please, please, don't eat the daisies,
Don't eat the daisies, please please!
I'm so romantic
That I'm gettin' frantic,
Wonderin' what you're gonna do!

Do you love me? (do you love me?)
Do you love me not? (love me not)
That's what I'm longin' to know!
If you love me, (if you love me)
Love me a lot,
You'll prove it by lettin' the daisies grow!

(oh please, please, don't eat the daisies,
don't eat the daisies, please please!)
S'posin' it showers
While you're eatin'flowers,
The hours are wasted away;
Please don't eat the daisies today!

Do you love me?
Do you love me not?
That's what I'm longing to know!
If you love me,
Love me a lot,
You'll prove it by letting the daisies grow! (daisies grow)

(oh)
Please, please, don't eat the daisies,
Don't eat the daisies, please please!
S'posin' it showers
While you're eatin'flowers,
The hours are wasted away;
Please don't eat the daisies, (don't eat the daisies, oh)
Don't eat the daisies today!
(please, please) Don't eat the daisies,
Don't eat the daisies,
Don't eat the daisies,
Don't eat the daisies,
Don't eat the daisies,
Don't eat the daisies...
