Lyrics
[Intro]
Why doesn't the Beadle come? "Before the week is out," that's what he said
And who says the week's out yet? It's only Friday
[Verse 1]
Easy now
Hush, love, hush
Don't distress yourself
What's your rush?
Keep your thoughts
Nice and lush
Wait
[Verse 2]
Hush, love, hush
Think it through
Once it bubbles, then what's to do?
Watch it close
Let it brew
Wait
[Chorus]
I've been thinkin' flowers, maybe daisies
To brighten up the room
Don't you think some flowers, pretty daisies
Might relieve the gloom?
Ah, wait, love, wait
[Verse 3]
And the Judge? When will I get him?
Can't you think of nothing else? Always broodin' away on your wrongs, what happened heaven knows how many years ago
[Verse 4]
Slow, love, slow
Time's so fast
Now goes quickly
See, now it's past
Soon will come
Soon will last
Wait
[Verse 5]
Don't you know
Silly man
Half the fun is to plan the plan?
All good things come to
Those who can
Wait
[Outro]
Gillyflowers maybe
'Stead of daisies
I don't know, though
What do you think?
Yes...
Gillyflowers, I'd say, nothing like a nice bowl of gillies
