Orchid Girl Lyrics - High Land, Hard Rain - Aztec Camera

What do you mean by beauty? 

Hope you know the consequences 

'Cos beauty wounds will make us strong 

With truth we'll test our old defenses 

And all my friends will make amends 

They're green and gray and gold and groovy 

And reconciled, they'll shake and smile 

Smile at me as though they knew me 

Judge this world through jaundiced eyes 

They're sold too soon and none too wise 

Their big blue God is in the sky 

Orchid girl, don't spend your money 

They asked me what the meek would get 

Pictured me afraid to answer 

I told them that when thought's entombed 

Then love will show it's root in Cancer 

The sweet disorder in your eye 

Has drawn me here through graves and gardens 

I'm going in, you're going in here 

Are your smokes, your jokes 

You're getting soaked, I'm angry 

And my fists are pocketed 

We'll judge this world through jaundiced eyes 

We're sold too soon and none too wise 

The big blue God is in the sky 

He takes the blame and never cries 

But Orchid girl, you'd make my day 

You'd blow their cloud of crap away 

If you would just refuse to pay 

Orchid girl, you'd make my day
