Raven House Poets - Zuzu's Petals Lyrics

"One More Missing Solder", Headline reads
In one small voice Zuzu says, "Please bring my Daddy back to me"
Expect that if it bleeds it leads
We're counting down to widow's weeds

Mr. Potter and Solidad there too
You spin your little webs and think the world revolves around you
Is the picture that I paint correct?
Do you hear her voice when she objects?

La, la, la
Garden in her dreams
La, la, la
Holding her petals
Into a pillow she settles

Shadows never fall in Zuzu's room alone
White lights from the TV crews steal secrets from her home
She's there strong in solitude
Call off Mr. Potter's pale debut

La, la, la
Garden in her dreams
La, la, la
Holding her petals
Into a pillow she settles

Why can't they just say that it's a wonderful life?
Every Tuesday afternoon, a riot to incite
To where she lay nearly sleeping
There's a garden there for her safekeeping

La, la, la
Garden in her dreams
La, la, la
Holding her petals
Into a pillow she settles
