When I was a little girl

my mama said to me

"What's your favorite flower, darling?

I'll get you the seed."

I said "Dandelion, Dandelion,"

that one's so pretty

She said, "Child, that one's not a

flower, that one's just a weed."

Oh, what a shame

Now it don't look the same

Guess it don't look the same

Oh, what a shame

Call me what you want

(Dandelion, Dandelion)

You can't stop me multiplyin'

Pull me from the dirt

(Dandelion, Dandelion)

No you don't want me in your garden

Dandelion, Dandelion

Ooh ooh ooh

Dandelion, Dandelion

(Dandelion, Dandelion)

I still love those mellow

yellow petals anyway

What's that thing they say

about a rose by any other name?

Then my fragile flower

turned into a ball of grey

So I took a breath and made a

wish and blew them all away

Oh, what a shame

Now it don't look the same

Guess it don't look the same

Oh, what a shame

Call me what you want

(Dandelion, Dandelion)

You can't stop me multiplyin'

Pull me from the dirt

(Dandelion, Dandelion)

No you don't want me in your garden

Dandelion, Dandelion

Call me what you want

(Dandelion, Dandelion)

You can't stop me multiplyin'

(Dandelion, Dandelion)

Pull me from the dirt

(Dandelion, Dandelion)

No, you don't want me in your garden

Dandelion, Dandelion

(Dandelion, Dandelion)

So I took a breath and made a

wish and blew them all away
