Lyrics and Translation
Line-by-line practice helps you understand the meaning and remember useful phrases.
They made her smile and sing
They made her grin and sing
Put your whistle in your pocket
Drop your whistle in your pocket
And it stayed there
And it just stayed there
He was clever boy
He was a smart kid
Full of new ideas
Full of fresh ideas
Who told you could do that?
Who told you you could do that?
So he didn't
So he didn’t
Destroy the flower
Break the flower
Destroy the flower
Break the flower
An unusual child
An odd kid
Well on her way
Just on her way
Somebody stopped her
Someone stopped her
Maybe they were scared
Maybe they were scared
It'll never come out now
It’ll never pop out now
And it's all your fault
And it’s all your fault
Give yourself a break
Take a breather
But she couldn't
But she couldn’t
Destroy the flower
Break the flower
Destroy the flower
Break the flower
Destroy the flower
Break the flower
In the warm spring
In the warm spring
Still the flowers bloom
The flowers still bloom
Still the beautiful things can surround us
The pretty stuff still surrounds us
He was clever enough
He was clever enough
To stay drugged fucked up
To stay high and messed up
You could have gone somewhere
You could’ve gone somewhere
But you didn't
But you didn’t
It'll never come out now
It’ll never pop out now
And it's all your fault
And it’s all your fault
This goes on and on and on and on
This keeps going on and on and on
Because you didn't change it
Because you didn’t change it
You destroy the flower
You break the flower
You destroy the flower
You break the flower
You destroy the flower
You break the flower
Destroy the flower
Break the flower
