When I was a little girl, my mama said to me
"What´s your favorite flower, darling? I´ll get you the seed"
I said, "Dandelion, Dandelion"
That one´s so pretty

She said, "Child, that one´s not a flower, that one´s just a weed."

Oh, what a shame
Now it don´t look the same
Guess it don´t look the same
Oh, what a shame

Call me what you want
(Dandelion, dandelion)
You can´t stop me multiplyin´
Pull me from the dirt
(Dandelion, dandelion)
No, you don´t want me in your garden
Dandelion, dandelion
(Dandelion, dandelion)
(Dandelion, dandelion)

I still loved those mellow yellow petals anyway
What´s that thing they say about a rose by any other name?
Then my fragile flower turned into a ball of grey
So, I took a breath and made a wish and blew them all away

Oh, what a shame
Now it don´t look the same
Guess it don´t look the same
Oh, what a shame

Call me what you want
(Dandelion, dandelion)
You can´t stop me multiplyin´
Pull me from the dirt
(Dandelion, dandelion)
No, you don´t want me in your garden

Dandelion, dandelion
Call me what you want
(Dandelion, dandelion)
You can´t stop me multiplyin´
(Dandelion, dandelion)
Pull me from the dirt
(Dandelion, dandelion)
No, you don´t want me in your garden
Dandelion, dandelion
(Dandelion, dandelion)

So I took a breath and made a wish and blew them all away
