Lyrics

Blue Orchid

You got a reaction
You got a reaction didn't you
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid turned it blue

Something better than nothing
Something better than nothing, it's giving up
We all need to do something
Try keep the truth from showing up

How dare you
How old are you now, anyway
How dare you
How old are you now, anyway

How dare you
How old are you now, anyway

You're given a flower

But I guess there's just no pleasin' you
Your lips tastes sour
But you think that it's just me teasing you

You got a reaction
You got a reaction didn't you
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid turned it blue

Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
Get behind me

Get behind me now, anyway

You got a reaction
You got a reaction didn't you
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid turned it blue
