Purple Daisies
(lyrics by Jamie Mandel)

put down your bottle; it's no way to solve this
you'll only poison yourself and sink deeper into trouble
you said "look at those beautiful purple daisies"
i said, "those aren't flowers and you're acting quite pathetic"
you appeared to me too drunk to talk but then you whispered
"why can't anything in life just be easy?"
just be easy
you went to play in the meadow but you never came back
one half of my face smiled and the other half wept
maybe you were bit by a snake; more likely your bottle
suppose i should have been there; probably useless to bother
you appeared to me too drunk to talk but then you uttered
"why can't anything in life just be easy?"
just be easy
just be easy
just be easy
"you'll regret this tomorrow
when you wake up maybe never"
"well nevermind tomorrow
cuz tonight i'm happier than ever"
put down your bottle; it's no way to solve this
you'll only poison yourself and sink deeper into trouble
on your grave i laid beautiful purple daisies
suppose i should have been there; probably useless to bother
