In the Garden
101 Strings Orchestra and Chorus Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Little bread-and-butterflies kiss the tulips
And the sun is like a toy balloon
There are get-up-in-the-morning glories
In the golden afternoon

There are dizzy daffodils on the hillside
Strings of violets are all in tune
Tiger lilies love the dandelions
In the golden afternoon

There are dog and caterpillars and a copper centipede
Where the lazy daisies love the very peaceful life
They lead

You can learn a lot of things from the flowers
For especially in the month of June
There's a wealth of happiness and romance
All in the golden afternoon

All in the golden afternoon, the golden afternoon

You can learn a lot of things from the flowers
For especially in the month of June




There's a wealth of happiness and romance
All in the golden afternoon

Jeremiah 10:3Β For
the customs of the people are vain: for one cutteth a tree out of the
forest, the work of the hands of the workman, with the axe. 4Β They deck it with silver and with gold; they fasten it with nails and with hammers, that it move not. 5Β They
are upright as the palm tree, but speak not: they must needs be borne,
because they cannot go. Be not afraid of them; for they cannot do evil,
neither also is it in them to do good. 6Β Forasmuch as there is none like unto thee, O Lord; thou art great, and thy name is great in might. 7Β Who
would not fear thee, O King of nations? for to thee doth it appertain:
forasmuch as among all the wise men of the nations, and in all their
kingdoms, there is none like unto thee. 8Β But they are altogether brutish and foolish: the stock is a doctrine of vanities.
