[Verse 1]
A long time ago in a desert so dry
A simple life form, adapting just to survive
A living fossil with no roots to unwind
A holy roller, open wings to the sky
A flash of lightning, before the thunder cracked
Set trees a-burning, but not the dinosaur plant
'Cause she's a tumbler who can bury her tracks
A resurrection, she keeps coming back
[Chorus]
The winds, they blow
Spread the seeds, the rose of Jericho
Forests fall
By hands of man like dominoes
Touch and go
Two outta three, Rochambeau
The rock you throw
Can't beat the rose of Jericho
[Post-Chorus]
Can't beat the rose of Jericho
[Verse 2]
Stuck at a bus stop, reading H. D. Thoreau
The smell of asphalt makes it hard to swallow
Another heatwave, becoming all that we know
We should've listened to the voice of the rose
A long time ago in a desert so dry
A simple life form, adapting just to survive
A living fossil with no roots to unwind
A holy roller, open wings to the sky
A flash of lightning, before the thunder cracked
Set trees a-burning, but not the dinosaur plant
'Cause she's a tumbler who can bury her tracks
A resurrection, she keeps coming back
[Chorus]
The winds, they blow
Spread the seeds, the rose of Jericho
Forests fall
By hands of man like dominoes
Touch and go
Two outta three, Rochambeau
The rock you throw
Can't beat the rose of Jericho
[Post-Chorus]
Can't beat the rose of Jericho
[Verse 2]
Stuck at a bus stop, reading H. D. Thoreau
The smell of asphalt makes it hard to swallow
Another heatwave, becoming all that we know
We should've listened to the voice of the rose
