She Wandered Through The Garden Fence Lyrics

SHE WANDERED THROUGH THE GARDEN FENCE



lyrics by Keith Reid



She wandered through the garden fence,

And said, "I've brought a great expens-

Ive potion, guaranteed to bring

Relief from all your suffering."

And though I said, "You don't exist,"

She grasped me firmly by the wrist,

Threw me down upon my back,

And strapped me to a torture rack

And without further argument,

I found my mind was also bent

Upon a course so devious

It only made my torment worse



She said, "I see you cannot speak,

Is it your voice that is too weak?

Is it your tongue that is to blame?

Maybe you cannot speak for shame.

Or has your brain been idle, too,

And now it will not speak for you?"

I hastened to make my reply,

But found that I could only lie

And like a fool I believed myself

And thought I was somebody else

But she could see what I was then

And left me on my own again



And like a fool I believed myself

And thought I was somebody else

But she could see what I was then

And left me on my own again



She wandered through the garden fence,

And said, "I've brought a great expens-

Ive potion, guaranteed to bring

Relief from all your suffering."

And though I said, "You don't exist,"

She grasped me firmly by the wrist,

Threw me down upon my back,

And strapped me to a torture rack

And without further argument,

I found my mind was also bent

Upon a course so devious

It only made my torment worse
