lyrics

The declaration of spring
The next it started snowing
My side is aching – baby kicking to go
Outside and play in the snow

The declaration of spring
The next day the blossoms were wearing
White jackets and swearing
They’d never grow

To take off their green armour
And bare their pink petticoats
Of flesh and seed

The declaration of spring
I am waiting for autumn to call
That’s when baby will fall
A red leaf to the ground

The declaration of spring
I’m just serenading
With a lullaby on the fact that I
to the seasons am bound

Until you take off your green armour
And bare your pink petticoats
Of flesh and bone

I know that I was fighting you
But who am I too deny?
And after all, I’m not in control
You showed me so

The declaration of spring
The next it started snowing
My side is aching – baby kicking to go
Outside and play in the snow

The declaration of spring
The next day the blossoms were wearing
White jackets and swearing
They’d never grow

To take off their green armour and bare their
Take off their armour and bare their
Will you take off your armour and bare your
Pink petticoats of flesh and bone
You’re my flesh and bone
You’re my flesh and bone
