It's a beautiful day, she's been cryin' all night
Oh, there's tears in her blue, bloodshot in mine
This bender's been bending, it's hellbound to break
My baby's had all she can take

Mister, I'll take your roses
If you cut off the thorns, she can't take no more
I'll buy violets and daisies to hide all the crazy
It's gonna take all you've got
Oh, it's a bad day for love but a good day for flower shops

Well, I took some pills and she took the dogs
Oh, it's all gone to hell, she's gone to her mom's
And I took up drinkin' since she took the time
To tell me I took the best years of her life

So, buddy, I'll take your roses
If you cut off the thorns, she can't take no more
I'll buy violets and daisies to hide all the crazy
It's gonna take all you got
It's a tough day for love but a good day for flower shops

Roses are red
Violets are blue
I don't need one, I need one million to
Get you

So, mister, I'll take your roses
If you cut off the thorns, she can't take no more
I'll buy violets and daisies to get back my baby
It's gonna take all you've got
Oh, it's a bad day for love but a good day for flower shops
