Paul Weller

When Your Garden's Overgrown

Bobby's off on holiday
Away across the sea
Setting up his easel
A new scene to see
Says that he's had enough
Of standing in the rain
Now he's looking for the good life
With European pain

Did you know
Your garden's overgrown
And what is shown?

Meeting all these pretty girls
Singing golden hair
He's in touch with the painter's mind
And Syd's unflinching stare
Drinking wine in the Moulin Rouge
Sipping kaffee in Berlin
Might take in the coloured lights
In the city they call sin

He could see
The writing on the wall
Ten feet tall

But oh there are times
He wished the world
Would fade just into sight
And oh, the feelings that changed
Were thicker than the brush
Strokes of fame
Now he rides the dirt roads
Of old southern Spain
And when senoritas sing
He can hear them say

Did you know
Your garden's overgrown
And what is shown?

He could see
The writing on the wall
Ten feet tall

We have not the lyrics yet. Please submit to me if you have.Some information about the lyrics:


Featuring Noel Gallagher on guitar and bass, this rousing singalong and
portrait of English eccentricity has an obvious connection to The Kinks'
songs of Weller's childhood, although he says the free-spirited central
character of the lyric is more inspired by Syd Barrett, pondering what
the Pink Floyd founder might have been had he not pursued a career in music.
