Anne & Gilbert Cast - Hothouse Flower Lyrics
GILBERT:
You once told me you could never really warm up to a flower
You couldn't live with

You once told me I remember we discussed it for an hour
What you could live with

I paid very close attention so I?ll mention if I may I heard you say that you would not ever wear a hothouse flower

And I quote

Hothouse flowers are like flowers that are flowered in a garden
Or in a forest

Hothouse flowers are for me if I misquote I beg your pardon
I?m just a florist

I?d feel silly where I couldn?t wear a lily to a dance

You won?t be happy
With a flower you can?t live with
That?s no way to go to the dance
Don?t go with the wrong flower
You won?t be happy
You won?t be happy

But wear the right flower to the dance
And you?ll be happy at the dance

GIRLS:
Hothouse flowers are like flowers that have flowered out like heather
Heather's hearty
Hothouse flowers don?t get out they?re unaffected by the weather
Good for a party

GILBERT:
I know flowers and you?re running out of hours to the dance

ALL:
You won?t be happy with a flower you can?t live with
That?s no way to go to the dance
Don?t go with the wrong flower
You won?t be happy
You won?t be happy
But wear the right flower to the dance and you?ll be happy at the dance

GIRLS:
Gilbert Blythe
Gilbert Blythe
You look so beautiful
Gilbert Blythe
Gilbert Blythe
You?re just so wonderful to see
Gilbert Blythe
Gilbert Blythe
Mr. Flower man
You can always pick lilies for me

GILBERT:
You won?t be happy with a flower you can?t live with
That?s no way to go to the dance
Don?t go with the wrong flower
(GIRLS: Gilbert Blythe
Gilbert Blythe
You look so beautiful
Gilbert Blythe
Gilbert Blythe
You?re just so wonderful to see)
You won?t be happy (GIRLS ECHO)
You won?t be happy (GIRLS ECHO)

ALL:
But wear the right flower to the dance
And you?ll be happy at the dance
