Set in plastic for all to see But not so drastic as it should be And even though it lay exposed No one may ever No one may ever No one may ever, smell the rose Ooh wah wah wah wah Ooh wah wah wah wah Set in bodies of glass and steel You may envision but cannot feel And in the tank it looks exposed No one may ever No one may ever No one may ever, smell the rose Hiding, from your senses At least, the ones that count Hiding, to protect you As lust and desire I lay exposed In one sense Your mind rejects the rest From a draining may not be the best Under filters of polar glass It may not glitter but let it pass And even though it lay exposed No one may ever No one may ever No one may ever, smell the rose
