The Gardener - Dylan Riley - Pete's Candy Store

A performance of a new song in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. The lyrics are as follows:

i left your apartment at 25 til one
you'd dream of things more decent than the things that i have done
your night, it might have ended but my own had just begun
look at the flowers weaving toward the sun

it's time to pay the gardener
it's time to pick the weeds
it's time to pay the gardener
it's time to sow the seeds

i met her at the intersection of 14th and third
she had on a skinny skirt, i don't know how much you heard
and all the things i'd done to you, i'd soon do unto her
look at the flowers rising from the dirt

it's time to pay the gardener
it's time to pick the weeds
it's time to pay the gardener
it's time to sow the seeds

don't call me up, babe,
unless you want the job
get the fuck up out my greenhouse
if you think that it's too hot
because i plucked off all your petals babe,
and the answer is: i love you not

i got what i wanted so i guess i can't complain
business is just business, babe, it'll happen once again
but waiting with my watering can is driving me insane
look at the flowers, look at the flowers,
thirsty for the rain
