Orange GroveA Poem by TonyThe product of extreme frustration.Oranges, oranges Are 756 enough? I haven't got a barrel spare
36 won't change the world or feed you or get your pretty girl BUt 36 can make it alright And I'd sleep like a baby tonight
Lucky lucky said he'd given up But he always thought he'd find the way He'd realize he'd only saved today
It ain't the dream he's got but it's the bigger cloud of the two, up there in the sky
Oranges, oranges Are 756 enough? 792's too much - too much I haven't got a barrel spare Cuz oh can life be so unfair
36 won't change the world or feed you or get the pretty girl But 36 can make it all right And I'd sleep like a baby tonight
Lucky lucky had to pick it up to give it up And he'd always said he'd find the way from a little higher now It's bare and he can't care for it Still he saved that day
Oranges, oranges 756 were enough 792 would've been too much From the smaller cloud up in the sky
36 can't change the world or feed you or get the pretty girl But 36 can make it alright He sleeps like a baby tonight © 2008 Tony |
