Poppies lyrics

[Verse 1]
She's out in the sun again
Cape on her shoulder
Told by some distant friend
To be bolder

[Verse 2]
She rose with a cavalry
And f*cks them all over
Looks just like a debutante
Swears like a sailor

[Chorus]
Pick your poppies and close both your eyes
You've been living like this since 1985
“There's nothing to do, nothing to be said”
Said the girl who sleeps in a four-poster bed

[Verse 3]
There's room at the top, they said
For jokers and harlots
We're all bound by a common thread

[Verse 4]
Poets and acrobats
Odd little feelings
Stuck in the mirror again
On thе ceiling
[Chorus]
Pick your poppies and close both your еyes
You've been living like this since 1995
“There's nothing to do, nothing to be said”
Said the girl who sleeps in a four-poster bed

[Bridge]
Sweet dreams my darling
Sweet dreams my babe
Sweet dreams my darling
I pray you never wake

[Verse 5]
John's all alone again
Picking his poison
Hates his fair-weather friends
Still, he joins them

[Chorus]
Pick your poppies and close both your eyes
You've been living like this since 2005
“Theres's nothing to do, nothing to be said”
Said the girl who sleeps in my four-poster bed
