And I gave a flower to the a big fat cop
He takes his club and beats me up
And I give a flower to the garbage man
He stuffs my girl in the garbage can
Well, love power, love power
The power of a sweet flower
Love power, love power
The power of a sweet flower
And I give it to the landlord when the rent comes 'round
He throws it in the toilet and he flush it down
And it goes into the sewer with the yuck a-runnin' through her
And it ends up in the river that we drink, hey world, you stink
Minutes later then you think
World you got just one more chance
Come on baby wanna' dance?
Well, love power, love power
The power of a sweet flower
Love power, love power
The power of a sweet flower
Love is the power that is mine
When I'm walkin' with my darlin' and we're holdin' hands
Love is fun 'cause she understands
Walkin' down the Sunday street
Givin' pretty flowers to the people that we meet
Well, love power, love power
The power of a sweet flower
Love power, love power
The power of a sweet flower
And I gave a flower to the a big fat cop
He takes his club and beats me up
And I give a flower to the garbage man
He stuffs my girl in the garbage can
And I give it to the landlord when rent comes 'round
He throws it in the toilet and flush it down
And it goes into the sewer with the yuck a-runnin' through her
And it ends up in the river that we drink, hey world, you stink
Minutes later then you think
World you got just one more chance
Come on baby wanna dance?
Well, love power, love power
The power of a sweet flower
Love power, love power
The power of a sweet flower
You don't care about no flowers
All you care about is your skin
