Lemon Tree - Fool's Garden

When I was just a lad of ten, my father said to me, "Come here and take a lesson from the lovely lemon tree." "Don't put your faith in love, my boy," my father said to me, "I fear you'll find that love is like the lovely lemon tree." Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet, But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat. Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet, But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat. One day beneath the lemon tree, my love and I did lie, A girl so sweet that when she smiled, the stars rose in the sky. We passed that summer lost in love, beneath the lemon tree, The music of her laughter hid my father's words from me. Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet, But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat. Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet, But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat. One day she left without a word, she took away the sun. And in the dark she left behind, I knew what she had done. She left me for another, it's a common tale but true, A sadder man, but wiser now, I sing these words to you. Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet, But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat. Lemon tree, very pretty, and the lemon flower is sweet, But the fruit of the lemon is impossible to eat.

We all make mistakes (go) And one of mine was putting up with the horse shit (go) They say any kind of press is good Wasting my time on a shoot Because I should Sometimes I can't complain, though (go) Never looking good makes me a bankroll To make sure I'm stable So, if I crash my car and need insurance, then I'm able (Hello?) What is wrong with you? You got a problem with me I'm gonna make you wait in line As long as the DMV so they'll never reach me 'Cause I don't have time for that chatter That movie was awesome, man I love the character he played on Spongebob That's cool, that's what he was known for I literally went out on a limb, not planning ahead That's why it's been such a slow journey Journey to the top I guess I'll just go until I burn out As long as the wax keeps dripping I'll make sure to stay lit Stay lit Stay lit Stay lit

Won't you take this cup from me Cause fear has stolen all my sleep If tomorrow means my death Pray you'll save their souls with it Let the songs I sing bring joy to you Let the words I say confess my love Let the notes I choose be your favorite tune Father let my heart be after you In this hour of doubt I see Who I am is not just me So give me strength to die myself So love can live to tell the tale Let the songs I sing bring joy to you Let the words I say confess my love Let the notes I choose be your favorite tune Father let my heart be after you Father let my heart be For you For you For you For you Let the songs I sing bring joy to you Let the words I say confess my love Let the notes I choose be your favorite tune Father let my heart be after you Father let my heart be after you
