Lemon Boy - The Orion Experience

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 weed

And like weeds do he only grew and came back again

So, I figured this time, I might as well let him be, let him be

So Lemon Boy and me started to get along together

I helped him plant his seeds and we mowed the lawn in bad weather

It’s actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him

And now I’ve got a citrus friend

But soon his bittersweet started to rub off on me

You’d think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty sweet, pretty sweet

I found out that my friends are more of the savory type

And they weren’t too keen on compromising with a nice lemon pie

So Lemon Boy and I, we just gotta get along together

I’ll help him plant his seeds and we mowed the lawn in bad weather

It’s actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him

And now I got a citrus friend

But what if I run out of fertilizer?

What if all the clouds run out of rain?

What if Lemon Boy grows no longer?

What if beaches dry of sugarcane?

Oh well

The whales start to beach themselves

The tortoise shells tear away from their spine

It happens all the time

It happens all the time

Lemon Boy and I, we’re gonna live forever

Like Snufkin and Little My, we’ll get around wherever

Yeah, Lemon Boy and I, we’re gonna live forever

Like Snufkin and Little My, we’ll get around wherever

It’s actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him

'Cause we’re the bitterest boys in town

Yeah, we’re the bitterest boys around

Now I got myself a citrus friend
