Safe In My Garden Lyrics By The Mamas The Papas

    safe in my garden
    an ancient flower blooms
    and the scent from its nature
    slowly squares my room
    and its perfume being such
    that it’s causing me to swoon
    could it be we were hotwired
    safe in my garden an ancient flower blooms
    late one night we’re very tired
    they stole our minds and thought we’ve never know it
    and the scent from its nature slowly squares my room
    with a bottle in each hand too late to try to understand
    we don’t care where it landswe just throw it

    somebody take us away
    somebody take us away

    safe in my garden
    could it be we were hotwired late one night we’re very tired
    an ancient flower blooms
    they stole our minds and thought we’ve never know it
    and the scent from its nature
    with a bottle in each hand too late to try to understand
    slowly squares my room
    we don’t care where it landswe just throw it

    somebody take us away
    and it’s perfume being such
    that it’s causing me to swoon

    when you go out in the street
    so many hassles with the heat
    no one there can fill your desire
    cops out with the megaphones
    telling people stay inside their home
    man can’t they see the world’s on fire

    somebody take us awaytake us away

    safe in our garden
    an ancient flower blooms
    and the scent from its nature
    cops out with the megaphones
    tellin’ people stay inside their homes
    man the world’s on fire
    slowly squares my room

    take us awaytake us away
