| 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 came and grew back again
|
| So, I figured this time I might as well let him be
|
| Lemon Boy and me started to get along together
|
| I helped him plant his seeds and we'd mow the lawn in bad weather
|
| It’s actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
|
| So I got myself a citrus friend
|
| But soon his bittersweet started to rub off on me
|
| You'd think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty neat
|
| I found out that my friends are more of the savoury type
|
| And they weren't too keen on compromising with a nice lemon pie
|
| So Lemon Boy and me, we just gotta get along together
|
| I’ll help him plant his seeds and we'll mow the lawn in bad weather
|
| It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him
|
| So, I got myself a citrus friend
|
| But what if I run out of fertilizer
|
| What if the clouds run out of rain
|
| What if Lemon Boy won't grow no longer
|
| What if the beaches dry of sugarcane
|
| Oh well
|
| The whales start to beach themselves
|
| The tortoise shells tear away from their spines
|
| It happens all the time, it happens all the time
|
| So, Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever
|
| Like Snufkin and Little My, we'll get around wherever
|
| So, Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever

|
| 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 guys around
|
| And I got myself a citrus friend |
