Mayflower child met a 25th Century Quaker
She's a-pickin' poppies 'n'
bringin' them into her hue
Sun sifting through and through and through
Letting them all and all
fill through

Me into you, me to you,
me to you, into you

Blue cheese faces laces
blue cheese faces
faces 'n' phases 'n' phases 'n' faces

Going through the cottage cottage
Going through the cottage cottage
Going through the cottage cottage
come with me baby, come with me
come with me baby, come with me

Quaker child, Quaker baby child

but a man's flutter like fireflies
Eyes that flutter like a wide open shutter
eyes that flutter like a wide open shutter
shutter, shutter, shutter

laces laces laces
blue cheese faces
Mayflower child met uh
25th century quaker
she's uh pickin' poppies
bringin them into her hue

Sun just, sun just,
sun dust sun just, siftin' through and through
and thru....

Call me baby
pay me, baby
pay me
