Name: Sunshine and Flowers
Duration: P00H03M02S
Description: Another track that has been a year or so in the works. I came up with the title as a way to be sarcastic about the Pollyannas of the world who ignore the bad things that are going on. I put a few twists on the lyrics here and there for the curious. The melody is simple but a lot of fun to play live.

lyrics

There’s a lotus in China
And lilies in LA
Roses in Pax Romana
And posies in Paris

Sunshine and flowers
Sunshine and flowers
Sunshine and flowers, around the world

A sunrise in Sydney
Dusk in Dublin Town
Sunset in São Paulo
And Seattle at sundown

Sunshine and flowers
Sunshine and flowers
Sunshine and flowers, around the world

There’s a shotgun in the closet
A pistol under my bed
There’s a landmine in the kitchen
And shrapnel in my head!

Sunshine and flowers
Sunshine and flowers
Sunshine and flowers, around the world

Sunshine and flowers
Sunshine and flowers
Flowers and sunshine, around the world
