Intro

Verse 1

 A friend brought me flowers, she said they were lilacs,

 I've never been good with plants

 Her next presentation, a new dictionary

 She circled the word "romance"

 So enthusiastic, a little bit drastic,

 I shaved her name in my head.

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?

Interlude

Verse 2

 She wrote me a letter as big as a phone book

 I've never been big on mail

 I sent her a postcard from somewhere near Lethbridge,

-3

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

These apples are delicious!

  "As a matter of fact they are," she said

Can all this fruit be free?

Interlude

Bridge

I'm not trying to sing a love song, I'm trying to sing in tune

I know I am sometimes headstrong

Falling in love, catching fire, I want to be consumed

Wondering will I ever tire, will I ever tire?

  Will I ever tire?

Chorus

These apples are delicious!

Can all this fruit be free?
