| The lyric of Weeds Ii The Origin Of The Species, Pulp's song This is the true story of the weeds: the origin of the species. A story of cultivationexploitationcivilization. Found flowering on wasteland unnoticedunofficialaccidental. A cutting was taken but weeds do not thrive under hothouse conditions & wilt when in competition with more exotic strains. A charming naivetyvery short flowering season; no sooner has the first blooming begun than decay sets in. Bring your cameratake photo of life on the margins. Offer money in exchange for sex & then get a taxi home. The story has always been the same A source of wonder due to their ability to thrive on poor quality soil offering very little nourishment Drinking Nurishment . But weeds must be kept under strict control or they will destroy everything in their path. Growing wildthen harvested in their prime & passed around at dinner parties. Care for some weed? So naturalso wildso unrefined & someone s gonna make a fortune one day If only they can market this stuff right. Come on: do your dance. Come ondo your funny little dance. Germination. Plantation. Exploitation. Civilization. A sensational buzz - zzzzzz. Crop rotation. Genetic modification. The creation of expectation. Ultimate frustration. This is the story of the weeds: the origin of the species.
