- Blue Orchid Lyrics / with translationsYou got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn't you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid and turned it blue
Something better than nothing
Something better than nothing, it's giving up
We all need to do something
Try to keep the truth from showing up
How dare you
How old are you now, anyway?
How dare you
How old are you now, anyway?
How dare you
How old are you now, anyway?
You're given a flower
But I guess there's just no pleasing you
Your lip tastes sour
But you think that it's just me teasing you
You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn't you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid and turned it blue
Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn't you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid and turned it blue
You got a reaction, didn't you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid and turned it blue
Something better than nothing
Something better than nothing, it's giving up
We all need to do something
Try to keep the truth from showing up
How dare you
How old are you now, anyway?
How dare you
How old are you now, anyway?
How dare you
How old are you now, anyway?
You're given a flower
But I guess there's just no pleasing you
But you think that it's just me teasing you
You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn't you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid and turned it blue
Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
Get behind me
Get behind me now, anyway
You got a reaction
You got a reaction, didn't you?
You took a white orchid
You took a white orchid and turned it blue
