lyrics

growing sprigs of rosemary. growing beets and salsify in planters in the street, down fulton at green. boiled down to flourishes - foam and gold foil garnishes. for all of yr hard work, half an ounce's worth.

they all watch for things they can't explain. get the clearest picture and you've won the game. of all the ways you'd think to entertain, we grow them all here for you.

hauling plates at half past two. when it proves too much for you, you put yr notice in. spend weeks at home again. barron is an eight-foot-tall madman tearing down the hall, all buttoned-up and proud to turn you inside out.

who guards our herb gardens while we sleep? who stays in the kitchen while this punk gets his ass beat? all the things in life you find so sweet - we give them all up for you.

we're saving space in the back to sell ramps from under the morgan l. sarsaparilla and fennel seed quenelles. pulling radishes all yr own. feast on what little roots they'd grown. their skin's bitter and hard and white as bone.

we're harvesting their wants for our basic needs. who stays in the garden when we all sit down to eat? some will live their whole lives on repeat so we can always be here for you.
