In a tenement near the Henry Hudson River | |
From my favorite spot on a rusting fire escape | |
I would look below and see Mario | |
Braving the ferocious dandelions | |
Mario our fearless superintendent | |
Kept the garden green, despite the parkway smog | |
But the flowering weeds | |
Their fates decreed | |
Pulled, to keep his rosebush from dying | |
Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed | |
Something strong was pulling at my head | |
Pulling at my heart | |
Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places | |
Wildflower, so lowly neath that lovely rosebush | |
Proper garden's nightmare, queen of open fields | |
Tell me, who will love this wildflower | |
For exactly what she is? | |
Years passed by, we left that red brick building | |
Left Mario behind | |
For a brand new house | |
But my dark brown skin | |
On the white washed walls within | |
Stood out, so it'd get me up and cryin' | |
My growing pains had many rooms to fill then | |
Mother never knew | |
Had a garden to keep clean | |
While there was N.Y. Grease | |
On the young flower from the Middle East | |
She was busy pulling dandelions | |
Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed | |
Something strong was pulling at my head | |
Pulling at my heart | |
Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places | |
Wildflower, so lowly 'neath that lovely rosebush | |
Proper garden's nightmare, queen of open fields | |
Tell me, who will love this wildflower | |
For exactly what she is? |
In a tenement near the Henry Hudson River | |
From my favorite spot on a rusting fire escape | |
I would look below and see Mario | |
Braving the ferocious dandelions | |

Their fates decreed | |
Pulled, to keep his rosebush from dying | |
Then I would creep inside, curl up in my bed | |
Something strong was pulling at my head | |
Pulling at my heart | |
Wildflower, growing in all the wrong places | |
Wildflower, so lowly neath that lovely rosebush | |
Proper garden' s nightmare, queen of open fields | |
Tell me, who will love this wildflower | |
For exactly what she is? | |
Years passed by, we left that red brick building | |
