You got a reaction.   
You got a reaction didn't you?
You took a white orchid.
You took a white orchid turned it blue.

Something better than nothing.
Something better than nothing it's giving up.
We all need to do something.
Try keep the truth from showing up.

You're given a flower,
But I guess there was just no pleasing you.

Your lip tastes sour,
But you think that it's just me teasing you.

You got a reaction.   
You got a reaction didn't you?
You took a white orchid.
You took a white orchid turned it blue.

Get behind me.
Get behind me now anyway

Get behind me.
Get behind me now anyway.
