about

Part II of "The Garden" Song Cycle

lyrics

Oh no, she hates to be alone
And a house is not a home for the lonely
She lives with stories never told
And the secrets that she holds are hers only
She never speaks of the lord of the manor, who's scarcely been seen
And she keeps to herself in the world she's created
And the guards are all anxious to be reinstated

Over the garden wall...

But the queen will never show
And no one may ever know
Why flowers never grow in her majesty's garden
And though there is no drought
The rumors are all about
What she's got buried out in her majesty's garden

She smiles but her lips will never part
She's the master of the art of deception
Aristocrats who travel to her door
Are just another for her collection
She always answers every question in a roundabout way
She fixes a tall one and tries to relax
From an afternoon out spent covering her tracks

(chorus)

I like to imagine her traveling the world
Weekends in Spain or Japan
Cocktail receptions and making connections
Trying to please her old man
(Has anyone seen the old man?)

(chorus)
