Song lyrics
I've took a picture that I'll have to send
People here are friendly and content
People here are colorful and bright
The flowers often bloom at night
Amanita is the name
The flowers cover everything
The flowers cover everything
There's something here I find hard to ignore
There's something that I've never seen before
Amanita is the name, they cover over everything
The flowers cover everything
They cover over everything (Amanita is the name)
The flowers cover everything
Look into the sun
Don't look into the sun
The flowers cover everything
They cover over everything
The flowers cover everything
The flowers cover everything
They cover over everything
The flowers cover everything
There's something that I've never seen before
The flowers often bloom at night
Amanita is the name, they cover over everything
