July Talk The Garden Lyrics

[Intro]
I went walking in the garden
I was tripping on snakes
And I ain't asking for your loving
I'm just asking what your love is gonna take

Ignorance is bliss when you're young enough to kiss

[Verse 1]
Young men don't need pardons
How much love you gonna make
Keep your head above the water
And breathe before the ice of the lake

[Chorus 1]
I ain't gonna let him twist my wrist
I ain't gonna let him kiss these lips no oh-oh

[Verse 2]
You've been falling close to arson Did you leave your pills at home?
You got a problem with your head
And the doctor says you shouldn't be alone

[Chorus 2]
Well I got hips, and you got lips
I plan to keep them oh-oh-oh

[Verse 3]
This ain't Johnny Carson
I've got thoughts that ain't my own
I'm talking black souls dressed in red
And things that I never shoulda known
True love has its benefits
And I plan to reap 'em oh oh oh oh

[Chorus 3]
You got hips, and I got lips
I plan to keep 'em, oh-oh-oh-oh
OH!
