lyrics

The dame's rocket in the field
Reminds me how I used to feel
The dame's rocket on the road
Reminds me how much I have grown

The vivid purple white and pink
Makes me feel and makes me think
Amidst spring green after the rain
She offers refuge from the pain

I seem to cause
myself
from time to time
I need help
And that's alright
We've all felt
Alone
At some point
In our lives

There go rockets out to space
Billionaires and toxic waste
They don't seem to understand
The perfection of this land
(we take for granted every day)

So the rich will fly away
And colonize another place
Leave us here we'll gladly stay
On the earth we'll sit and pray
And in time we'll decompose
The garden orb will eat our bones
With our loved ones hearts' ablaze
The only rockets that we'll need
Are the dames
