lyrics

How does your garden grow?
It’s choking, full of weeds
You thought you’d run away
While anger interbreeds

Hey Miss Carolina, when are you gonna come back home? Now
you left your forsythia in the yard now it’s everything I see.
Your trail’s a parabola that swings you far but it’s never what you need. Hey Miss Carolina, when are you coming home?

The pretty maids all in a row
Each one to supersede
The ground beneath is dark and moist
Tilled by a centipede

Hey Miss Carolina, when are you gonna come back home?, Now
I saw your forsythia in the yard and it covered everything
Your trail’s a parabola, swung around by the changes in the wind
Hey Miss Carolina, when are you coming home?
