Lemon boy

There once was a bittersweet man and they called him, "Lemon Boy"He was growing in my garden and I pulled him out by his hair like a weedAnd like weeds do he only came and grew back againSo, I figured this time I might as well let him be

Lemon Boy and me started to get along togetherI'd help him plant his seeds and we mowed the lawn in bad weatherIt's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like himSo, I got myself a citrus friend

But soon his bittersweet started to rub off on meYou'd think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty neatI found out that my friends are more of the savoury typeAnd they weren't too keen on compromising with a nice lemon pie

So Lemon Boy and me, we just gotta get along togetherI'll help him plant his seeds and we'll mow the lawn in bad weatherIt's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like himSo, I got myself a citrus friend

But what if I run out of fertilizerWhat if the clouds run out of rainWhat if Lemon Boy won't grow no longerWhat if the beaches dry of sugarcaneOh well

The whales start to beach themselvesThe tortoise shells tear away from their spinesIt happens all the time, it happens all the time

Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live foreverLike Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around whereverLemon Boy and I, we're gonna live foreverLike Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around whereverIt's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him'Cause we're the bitterest boys in townYeah, we're the bitterest guys aroundAnd I got myself a citrus friend
