"The Flowers She Sent And The Flowers She Said She Sent" lyrics

"The Flowers She Sent And The Flowers She Said She Sent"

I saw you standing at the airport
With your chihuahua in your hand
Crying on the moving sidewalk
On your way to Disneyland

And the flowers she sent
And the flowers she said she sent
Are all equally dead
You don't care anymore what she said
And the books she read
And the books that she said she read
Are all spread on the floor
You don't get out of bed anymore

I saw you closing your antique shop
With a boa 'round your throat
And you trembled like an ostrich
In your ostrich feather coat

And the flowers she sent
And the flowers she said she sent
Are all equally dead
You don't care anymore what she said
And the books she read
And the books that she said she read
Are all spread on the floor
You don't get out of bed anymore
