Kevin Ayers - Orible Orange lyrics

rate me

I'm an orible orange

Covered in chemical spray.

I'm absolutely nasty

That's why I have to say

That I'm an orible orange

(he's an orible orange)

I'm an orible orange

(he's an orible orange)

I'm an orible orange

(he's an orible orange)

And you shouldn't eat me.

I'm a soggy white sandwich

Made from bleached white bread.

I'm absolutely nutrition-less and useless

That's why it has to be said

That I'm a soggy white sandwich

(he's a soggy white sandwich)etc.

I'm a chemical kipper

Coloured with poisonous red dye.

I wish I were a beautiful bloater

But next to a pat of rancid butter I lie.

I'm a chemical kipperetc.

I'm a lamentable lentil

Lamentablentablentablentable lentil.

I'm a lamentable lentiletc...

I'm a miserable maggot

I live in poisoned fruit.

I always have bad tummy aches

And very often puke--blechgh!

I'm a miserable maggot

Such a miserable maggot.

Fruit ain't what it used to be.

I'm a miserable maggotetc...

I'm an unhappy apple

Covered in chemical dust

I'm absolutely toxic

So I warn you all I must

I'm an unhappy appleetc.

...you shouldn't eat me.
