These Apples(Live) - Barenaked Ladies

A friend brought me flowers she said they were lilacs
But 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
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
These apples are delicious
As a matter of fact they are she said
Can all this fruit be free
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
These apples are delicious
As a matter of fact they are she said
Can all this fruit be free
