lyrics

Unaccustomed to theater, I struggled to play my part. They were so used to mellow, and I'm so used to being harsh. But Spring sprang soft and pleasant, with beads and blue pipes. And girls with flowers in their hair who kept me up all night.

Makes me wanna sing "Sugar Magnolia", so don't say I ever told ya that I can't find no beauty in some shit I left behind. I've smelled so many Summer flowers in all those gorgeous Summer hours. I'm gonna sing "Sugar Magnolia" 'til you're off of my mind.

Someone's burning rope, and my fingertips keep time, tangled up in long red hair and dancin' down her spine. Patches sewn on blue jeans, and t-shirts soaken wet. We're kissing amongst the graveyard trees every chance we get.

Makes me wanna sing "Sugar Magnolia", so don't say I ever told ya that I can't find no beauty in some shit I left behind. I've smelled so many Summer flowers in all those gorgeous Summer hours. I'm gonna sing "Sugar Magnolia" 'til you're off of my mind.

Incense on skin, and she whispers in my ear. Something about "Wish You Were Here" makes me glad that you're not here. You been keepin' score on my locked door, and all the sunshine acid queens, but it's not the scene that makes me, it's me making a scene.

Makes me wanna sing "Sugar Magnolia", so don't say I ever told ya that I can't find no beauty in some shit I left behind. I've smelled so many Summer flowers in all those gorgeous Summer hours. I'm gonna sing "Sugar Magnolia" 'til you're off of my mind.
