Текст (слова) песни: Barenaked Ladies - These Apples

 
A friend brought me flowers, she said they were lilacs, 
I`ve never been good with plants 
Her next presentation, a new dictionary 
She circled the word "romance" 
 
So enthusiastic, a little bit drastic, 
I shaved her name in my head 
As she beheld it, she said I misspelled it; 
Need more be said? 
 
(chorus) 
These apples are delicious! 
"As a matter of fact they are," she said 
Can all this fruit be free? 
 
She wrote me a letter as big as a phone book 
I`ve never been big on mail 
I sent her a postcard from somewhere near Lethbridge, 
And wondered if it still went by rail 
 
I`ve never been frightened of being enlightened 
But some things can go too far 
Though sometimes I stammer and mix up my grammar, 
You get what my meanings are 
 
chorus) 
 
I`m not trying to sing a love song -- I`m trying to sing in tune 
I know I am sometimes headstrong 
Falling in love, catching fire -- I want to be consumed 
Wondering will I ever tire, will I ever tire? 
 
(chorus)
