[00:13.60] There once was a bittersweet man and they called him, "Lemon Boy"

[00:15.19] He was growing in my garden and I pulled him out by his hair like a weed

[00:19.70] And like weeds do he only came and grew back again

[00:26.90] So, I figured this time I might as well let him be

[00:33.81] Lemon Boy and me started to get along together

[00:40.45] I helped him plant his seeds

[00:42.58] And we'd mow the lawn in bad weather

[00:43.91] It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him

[00:47.92] So, I got myself a citrus friend

[00:55.62] But soon his bittersweet started to rub off on me

[00:56.42] You'd think smelling like lemon zest would be pretty neat

[00:00.00] I found out that my friends are more of the savory type

[00:00.00] And they weren't too keen on compromising with a nice lemon pie

[00:00.00] So Lemon Boy and me, we just gotta get along together

[00:00.00] I helped him plant his seeds

[00:00.00] And we'll mow the lawn in bad weather

[00:00.00] It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him

[00:00.00] So, I got myself a citrus friend

[00:00.00] But what if I run out of fertilizer?

[00:00.00] What if the clouds run out of rain?

[00:00.00] What if Lemon Boy won't grow no longer?

[00:00.00] What if beaches dry of sugar cane?

[00:00.00] Oh well

[00:00.00] The whales start to beach themselves

[00:00.00] Tortoise shells tear away from their spines

[00:00.00] It happens all the time, it happens all the time

[00:00.00] Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever

[00:00.00] Like Snufkin and little my, we'll get around wherever

[00:00.00] Lemon Boy and I, we're gonna live forever

[00:00.00] Like Snufkin and little my, we'll get around wherever

[00:00.00] It's actually pretty easy being nice to a bitter boy like him

[00:00.00] 'Cause we're the bitterest boys in town

[00:00.00] Yeah, we're the bitterest guys around

[00:00.00] And I got myself a citrus friend
