SAFE IN MY GARDEN
The Mamas & The Papas
Safe in my garden
An ancient flower blooms
And the scent from its nature
Slowly squares my room
And its perfume means such
That it's causing me to swoon
Safe in my garden
(Could it be, we were hot-wired? Late one night while very tired)
An ancient flower blooms
(They stole our minds and thought we'd never know it)
And the scent from its nature
(With a bottle in each hand, to late to try to understand)
We don't care where it lands we just throw it.
(Slowly squares my room)
Somebody take us away (2x)

That it's causing me to swoon
(Safe in my garden)
When you go out in the street
So many hassles with the heat
(An ancient flower blooms)
No one there can fill your desire
(And the scent from its nature)
Cops out with the megaphones
Telling people stay inside their homes
(Slowly squares my room)
Man, can't they see the world's on fire?
Somebody take us away
Take us away
Safe in our garden
An ancient flower blooms
And the scent from its nature
(Cops out with the megaphones, telling people stay inside their homes)
Man, the world's on fire
(Slowly squares our room)
Take us away (2x)
