Lyrics

In Bloom [Live at Reading]

[Verse 1]

Sell the kids for food

Weather changes moods

Spring is here again

Reproductive glands

[Chorus]

He's the one who likes all our pretty songs

And he likes to sing along and he likes to shoot his gun

But he knows not what it means

Knows not what it means

And I say he's the one who likes all our pretty songs

And he likes to sing along and he likes to shoot his gun

But he knows not what it means

Knows not what it means and I say yeah

[Verse 2]

We can have some more

Nature is a whore

Bruises on the fruit

Tender age in bloom

[Chorus]

He's the one who likes all our pretty songs

And he likes to sing along and he likes to shoot his gun

But he knows not what it means

Knows not what it means

And I say he's the one who likes all our pretty songs

And he likes to sing along and he likes to shoot his gun

But he knows not what it means

Knows not what it means and I say yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]

He's the one who likes all our pretty songs

And he likes to sing along and he likes to shoot his gun

But he knows not what it means

Knows not what it means

And I say he's the one who likes all our pretty songs

And he likes to sing along and he likes to shoot his gun

But he knows not what it means

Knows not what it means

Knows not what it means

Knows not what it means and I say yeah
