Lyrics Lemon Boy - The Orion Experience

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 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
