"Dead Flower" is the fourth track on Melanie's fourth studio album, Gummies

Theme[]

This song is about what Cry Baby was plotting during Chalkboard. As it turns out, she was plotting to kill Sophia's father by trapping him in a hole he couldn't climb out of and he eventually dies of thirst after not having anything to drink for too long.

Lyrics[]

You were a flower



A pretty one at that



But you smelled like a dead body



Well, now you are one, too



I was so caught up



In the sights and sounds



Of the trees rustling in the breeze



But when I managed to look past your pretty face



I managed to see you were the bane of the human race



You were nothing but a pretty purple corpse flower



Now you're a dead flower, dead flower



There are plenty of other fish in the sea



Other flowers in the garden staring at me



I happen to have quite a green thumb



I pity anyone who saw the good in you



Oh wait, that was me



I was so caught up



In the sights and sounds



Of the trees rustling in the breeze



But when I managed to look past your pretty face



I managed to see you were the bane of the human race



You were nothing but a pretty purple corpse flower



Now you're a dead flower, dead flower



Oh, but when I managed to look past your pretty face



I managed to see you were the bane of the human race



You were nothing but a pretty purple corpse flower



Now you're a dead flower, dead flower



'Cause when flowers don't get water, they die


Trivia[]

  • The "dead body" lyric is possibly a reference to Band Aid.
