Buy a Bouquet

When you buy a bouquet
You pick out flowers you hate
That way you don’t mind
When those flowers die

We are self destructive creatures sometimes
But if you only look for the bad
you might just find...
You miss the good

When she picks her lovers
They're only the lovers she can’t stand
That way she don’t mind
When she is alone again

When I start my car
I don’t expect it to get very far
That way I don’t mind
When the engine dies

We are self destructive creatures sometimes
But if you only look for the bad
you might just find...
You miss the good

When I see your face
i can only think of what’s right
That way I don’t mind
All the bad in life

We are optimistic creatures
If we want sometimes
If you only look for the good
You might just find...
a better life
