Lyrics
She's turning 57, but she says she's 39
She planted plastic flowers in the yard while he got high
He asked her, "Why not real ones?"
She said, "That takes more time."
He laughed out loud and added, "And fake flowers never die."
"It's time to grow up son."
You said it every single day
Since I was old enough
To leave the front door open
Grandma got away
We found her walking home from picking flowers from the grave
We were born as children and we'll die the same way
I'm sorry
I know I don't stop by enough
I'm not ungrateful for what you've done
Or what you do
But being around is kinda tough
Seems like the closer that I come
Your shadow just gets longer
And we can work ourselves to death
But that won't make us any stronger
Doing everything, everything I can to beg your pardon
Doing everything, everything I can to mend this garden
