Lucy Wainwright Roche - Ruins lyrics

Artist: Lucy Wainwright Roche

album: I Can Still Hear You


A boy was on his way to school,
A place he did'nt want to go.
He lagged behind his brother and
His brother's best friend.
A boy passed by an apple tree,
Stopped at the garden bed
Flower faces stared at him,
Yellow, purple, black and red.
I don't want to ruin anything.
I don't want to ruin anything.
He lifted up his leg and boot
And stomped upon the roses.
Next, he took the pansies out,
Crushed their eyes and noses.
I asked my mama yesterday,
I asked my daddy too.
Why's a human heart so mean to do
The things that we do.
I don't want to ruin anything.
I don't want to ruin anything.
Later on,
Comes a lady with a dog,
A spade, and a rake,
She sat down and cried.
Everythings I planted has died.
But I took my chances each time I planted,
My whole life through,
Cause what else can you do.
She sat down by the apple tree.
The sun moved through the sky.
At three o'clock the boy came back
To see what he'd done and why.
I asked my mama yesterday,
I asked my daddy too.
Why's a human heart is so mean to do
The things that we do.
I don't want to ruin anything...
