LyricMeaning

Tulip
Augie March

Are you lit from the inside

Is that why your teeth are bright?

You smile as the sun sets on the window

And the car fills up with light


Make a smile tulip, don't think of me

As something that's passed

I am not written in the book

But I intend to last


And as the sun comes up

You know it's really going down

You only framed it incorrectly

Now you cannot turn it round


If there's enough of us here left

Then we'll drive it into town

And when we pass the field of tulips

Then I'll put the knuckle down


Don't frown tulip

Make a smile

Don't frown tulip

You know it's all worthwhile


There were lions by the roadside

I was driving with my father

Through a dream of French forests

And all was warmth and solace


And all said he is with us

But always sad and serious

Standing outside in the garden

Pained and peerless


Don't frown tulip

Make a smile

Don't frown tulip

You know it's all worthwhile


Make a smile at the end of your tether

This was never gonna last forever


The woods all were peopled

With daughters and sons

The teeming uncounted

And unchosen ones


Who don't dance anymore

They just move around in bubbles

And nobody notices nobody's troubles

Nobody notices nobody's troubles


Don't frown tulip

Make a smile

Don't frown tulip

You know it's all worthwhile


Make a smile at the end of your tether

This was never gonna last forever

Don't frown tulip, don't frown tulip
