<noinclude> {{dmbox | text = These '''lyrics''' are for the original version of "In the Flowers" performed on tour in 2007. For the [[Merriweather Post Pavilion]] release, see '''[[In the Flowers]]'''. }} </noinclude> <lyrics> (I'm a dancer) A dancer Who got high in a field Found a moment Took a breath on his way home He saw trees that rotted north He felt envy for the little kinds of heavens He hoped his girl would have flowers in her hair And the dancer Who got hired 'cause his feet Had good rhythm Found himself away for weeks That pass slower than a sloth On the grill he cooked his heart in orange embers He hoped his girl still had flowers in her hair He said sometimes I guess I have to miss my wife But am I a little dancer Who is missing you while you're gone And am I the funny dancer Who is singing this funny song Does the dancer look at me and Does he recognize all his wrongs Do I write about myself, cause I won't be this way very long To hold you in time To hold you in time To hold you in time To hold you in time And the dancer Who came home from his field Felt kinda awkward He felt happy, he couldn't wait He burst open that good lock He felt ecstasy and little pins of heat He saw his girl still had flowers in her hair </lyrics>
