Lyrics
Flowers for Charlie, you know
I’m not a good G.I. Joe
Because I always aim low
And I won’t fight you
Popularity war
I’d be a clown in the corp
Taking over the store
It’s a cop out
I don’t want to win
New friends anymore
There’s a world within
But I can’t call out
Kiss me quickly
I’m in a hurry
And I’ve got worry enough
Trying to stay around
Brought you a flower
From the other side
It’s a free world
You don’t have to hide
First Known Live Performance
