Rose said quote it's time to make a mess Time will soon be mine in time I guess She's painting on my back a beautiful flowerpot And she treats me she treats me she treats me like her local god Rose said quote it's time to make a mess This one's yours and yours is self obsessed She's painting on my back a green tom, the beefheart one And she cuddles and she coos and she cuts the bullshit I confessed She said:Don't look my way What can I possibly say I've never seen you before today I'm just the one that makes you think of the one that makes you feel like you're the one But thank you for the roses, for the roses so thank you for the roses, for the roses thank you for the roses, for the roses thank you for the roses, for the roses Rose said quote it's time to make a mess remind me what it is that I do best She's painting on my back some beautiful something sweet And she treats me she treats me she beats me Rose said quote my time has come at last Ugly things through my mind they have passed She's scratching on my back 'if this boy believes me' She leaves me, deceives me and takes those flowers just to please me..... Rose don't mind where she been She been blind She been mine All this time She been kind She been mine She said: Thank you for the roses, for the roses (just to please me) Thank you for the roses, for the roses(just to please me) Thank you for the roses, for the roses(just to please me) Thank you for the roses, for the roses(just to please me) Thank you.
