Lyrics
C F
Corpse Flower, Corpse Flower,
D7 C
Waft your stench to me,
F C
I’ve been waiting for years,
G C
Your beauty to see.
C G
Amorphophallus titanum,
F C
That is your name,
F C
And attracting death bugs,
G C
The nature of your game,
Dead Fish, and Garlic,
And Limburger Cheese,
Your pungent excretions,
Are made up of these
For one night only,
You unsheathe your staff,
Where the keen pollinators,
Will mingle and laugh,

One of those flowered a year or so ago in Tornto and many people travelled to see it while it smelled the worst. People are weird. You are one of the weird ones to sing about this!

It just shows you have to know your audience. To carrion eaters, that smell is delicious.

The music and delivery here could be that of another lovely, emotional folk song; good thing I was paying attention to the actual lyrics. 😀

Clever lyrics and your vocals are perfect on this!
