Marigolds are very much in love
But he doesn't mind
Picking up sister
He makes his way in to the see-saw land
All the way she smiles
She goes up while he goes down
Down
Sits on a stick in the river
Laughter in his sleep
Sister's throwing stones, hoping for a hit
He doesn't know, so then
She goes up while he goes down
Down
Another time, another day
A brother's way to leave
Another time, another day
She'll be selling plastic flowers on a Sunday afternoon
Picking up weeds
Picking up weeds she hasn't got time to care
She grows up for another man
And he's down
Another time, another day
A brother's way to leave
Another time, another day
Another time, another day
A brother's way to leave
