Pickled petunias.
Pickled flowers.
I don't know why.
Pickled petunias.
Pickled flowers.
They can't make me cry.
For you see, the pickling
process preserves lots of things
lovely and sublime.
Pickled petunias,
Pickled tulips,
and lots of pickled flowers fine.
They last so much longer
cold preserved.
I'm not talking about
boiling these things.
They last oh, much longer
when they're preserved,
and there are cold
pickling processes.
No boiling for these flowers, yes.
How would you like your flower
preserved through space and time?
It will be all thine all forever,
always looking so fine.
We can preserve that corsage
long for you, oh yes.
And that wedding flowers will
last like all the rest.
And when your day comes to go
deep in the ground
you can be covered with
these flowers you've found.
All those fine pickled flowers
can go with you to rest.
Accompanying you on your
journey like the best.
For some flowers are edible
and these are fine, I guess.
For we don't know
how they taste to the dead.
But, roses are quite edible
as are many other flowers, yes.
So, instead of drying all those bouquets
let's pickle the best.
