Heart Like an Orange |
| In his cold little town there’s no singing allowed |
| No one smiles much and no one makes out and no one smokes down |
| He had a click in his knee and a sore in his mouth |
| Had a couple of girls but nothing so great to keep him around |
| So from up on the tundra he wandered down |
| Like a stray cat running from the snow |
| Took his mouldering boots off and breathed the air |
| Tried to live on the beach and was seared by the sun |
| Back on the farm his folks were up in arms crying, «our baby’s a bum!» |
| But them Florida Girls kept him at ease |
| Ginger and rose and jasmine and all the other smells on the breeze |
| Up from the marshes she came to him |
| Like a flip flop floatin' on a wave |
| Like a hummingbird flying across the sea |
| If you lose a wingbeat when you’re over that sea |
| You’ll be swallowed by the drink, you’ll sink and you’ll sink |
| You’ll sink, you’ll see |
| But up in her room smells like sweet cinnamon |
| Cedar and sage and incense and smoke but few men had been |
| He’s lost and he’s gone |
| Gotta heart like an orange |
