Push Th' Little Daisies

"Push th' Little Daisies" is a song by American band Ween, appearing on their third album "Pure Guava" in 1992. It was released as a single in 1993. A music video was released, featuring Dean and Gene Ween eating various foods while fooling around (with cuts to a beautiful girl) and interspersed with them performing the song. The video (which replaced the word "shit" with a sample of Prince squealing—taken from his song "Alphabet St.") and the song gained exposure after being critiqued on the MTV show Beavis and Butt-head. The song was a hit in Australia, spending 13 weeks on the Australian Singles Chart and peaking at number 18 in August 1993. At the end of the year, it was ranked 40th on Triple J's annual Hottest 100 music poll. The song was also successful on US alternative rock radio, charting at number 21 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart. The A.V. Club said, "there's something undeniable about the madness of "Push th' Little Daisies", with its roots in alternative-nation open-mindedness, pop subversion, and lots of drugs. It's crazy catchy, too, even as it's deliberately annoying." The song is mentioned in the book 1001 Songs You Must Hear Before You Die.

[Verse 1] When you lie Kiss your baby bye bye bye And if you're true The whole wide world will laugh with you When we see Nothing's wrong with you and me With you time will tell It might even bring a wedding bell And if you think that I'm a loser Well you suck, cause you know I ain't nothin' but a user Of your love, can't get enough Girl it's true, the whole wide world is smilin' with you [Chorus] Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up [Verse 2] Sometimes I know Sometimes I'm on the go But I'm comin' back So don't give me no flack It's all you And it's me too It's your world You's the girl, you's the girl Happier than shit Things that might go click with me Click with you Is that love? Is that love? Oh [Chorus] Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Watch the little daisies grow, little daisies grow Now just push th' the little daisies and make 'em come up Watch them grow watch them grow As I push the little daisies and make 'em come up Make 'em come up Make 'em come up Make 'em come up, say Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up Push th' little daisies and make 'em come up
