The Dresden Dolls – The Gardener Lyrics | 7 years ago |
I think the song is about unwanted pregnancy and giving birth to unwanted child Sorry for the setback I know i let you down mother is telling about the pregnancy and who is the father, creating problems for him Turn back the clocks and step back And spring might come around irony about the time that cant be turned back My little misbegotten... You're quite a stubborn bud! to her fetus...misbegotten=bastard If we can't make you open We will take it out in blood if there is no dilation, there will be caesarian We'll make a man out of you yet! We will plant brambles in your bed! to the father...warning about what will come he will become a man/father/parent Just close your eyes and count to ten... This is as close as you will get... restless nights Oh is our little willow weeping? Flutter to your knees The untilled things before me, Oh the possibilities the mother accuse the father for being scared to be a parent Thank you for the warning, But i still see the sun... A little global warming Never hurt no one... cant understand that one, if someone have an idea please share... At last my pretty flower Is getting put to use You've always been a failure But now you're bearing strange new fruit... the mother to herself... the flower and the fruit being metaphors for womb and fetus The insides are all useless she's been told she wont have another child But the rest is fertile, so she is healthy otherwise... I will take the belt from off the hook And watch the garden grow so she's forced to punish herself and carry the child, despite she does not want it...because this is her only chance to be a mother We'll make a man out of you yet You won't know what will hit you next The gardener's coming to collect You wanted love? That's what you get... Blaming the father for the pregnancy, threatening she's giving birth to the child The gardener's coming to collect Doctors are coming to extract the baby THESE ARE BRILLIANT VERY POWERFUL LYRICS!!!!!!! THANK YOU AMANDA! |
