lirik lagu the rape of the rose garden – david j
oh, jackie kennedy
she planted those crab apple trees
in the rose garden
then came the winter of ’63
first lady ellen
she sowed the seeds
at 1600 pennsylvania
but now the earth, it bleeds
and the magnolia in the west wing
has a melancholy cast
the tom thumb roses
somehow knew they would never last
and hope returns, but all is lost
oh, those civil war horseshoes
are turned upside down
and the green man, cernunnos
he wears a beleaguered frown
the heliotropes and lavender
and borders of lapis blue
have gone the way of vanquished weeds
as the country is made anew
(but not better)
and the magnolia in the west wing
has a melancholy cast
the tom thumb roses
somehow knew they would never last
beyond the colonnade
by the oval office door
the ghosts of past presidents
are fleeing to the shining shore
the flagstaff terrace
it shivers in the wind
as the promise of a new dawn
is destined to rescind
and hope returns, but all is lost
poor jackie kennedy
she planted those crab apple trees
in the rose garden
then came the winter of ’63
and now what follows
is even of a darker hue
so do not ask what your country can do for you
but what can you do
for your country
for your country
your country
your country
look at your country
is this your country
where is your country
your country
