Lyrics for 'These Apples' by 'Barenaked Ladies'
Words & Music By Ed Robertson
A Friend Brought Me Flowers, She Said They Were Lilacs
But I've Never Been Good With Plants
Her Next Presentation, A New Dictionary
She'd Circled The Word 'romance'
So Enthusiastic, A Little Bit Drastic
I Shaved Her Name In My Head
And As She Beheld It, She Said I Misspelled It;
Need More Be Said!
Chorus:
These Apples Are Delicious!
'as A Matter Of Fact They Are,' She Said
Can All This Fruit Be Free?
She Wrote Me A Letter As Big As A Phonebook
I've Never Been Big On Mail
I Sent Her A Postcard From Somewhere Near Lethebridge
And Wondered If It Still Went By Rail
I've Never Been Frightened Of Being Enlightened
But Some Things Can Go Too Far
Though Sometimes I Stammer And Mix Up My Grammar,
You Get What My Meanings Are
Chorus
I'm Not Trying To Sing A Love Song -- I'm Trying To Sing In Tune.
I Know I Am Sometimes Headstrong
Falling Love, Catching Fire -- I Want To Be Consumed
Wondering Will I Ever Tire, Will I Ever Tire!
