"Gardening at Night" is the name of an REM song on their first EP, Chronic Town. It was a popular term in the south with obvious implications about marijuana farming; however, it can refer to any type of activity done under the secrecy of night normally done during the day. REM being signed to IRS Records and managed by CIA management all run by sons former CIA Miles Copeland Jr. And since the CIA was behind the psychedelic 60s, it should come as no surprise that drugs are still the focus of pop music.
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
