I Want to Be Clean

Every night I fly to the sky and cry Let it rain down on everyone below And as the tears hit her head She says, I'm better off dead But instead she falls into a bar And she orders a drink Until her breath starts to stink And she calls up an old friend Just to see what they think And they say, "Put down the phone Oh, just get yourself home Leave it alone, dear" She says, I get too scared And I'll accept any death I just care and that's my problem And I want to be clean No, I don't want to be mean Or break anybody's heart And every flower, oh, has the power To change a life of a man or a woman with its color And every plant, mmm, just wants to dance In the warm breeze you can hear it say please And every car or machine has a motor And you really turned mine on And you turned my, my motor over And everybody, oh my god, in this town Thinks it's real fat and funny Oh, that I'm still around And, oh, my wild flower Don't you know you hold the power? And you put our lives in danger Just to think one day we were just strangers Oh, how I've ruined you And, oh, how you've ruined me too And I want to be clean No, I don't want to be mean Or break anybody's heart
