Don't care for gardenias
Rather have a dandelion
Don't like weddings much either now
And things that you can't rely on.

But you make me feel good
You with your run-down shoes and your shining eyes
You make me feel good
You can do what you want and I don't mind.

Don't much care for birds of paradise
Rather have a sparrow
Don't like flying much either now
Things you can't control.

But you make me feel good
You with your scruffy jeans and your run-down shoes
You make me feel good
You only do the things that you want to.

You make me feel good
You with your scruffy jeans and your tangly hair
You make me feel good
You can do what you want
And I don't care...
