Tim O'Brien - You Ate The Apple lyrics

rate me

(Tim O'Brien, Jonathan Byrd)

You ate the apple?

I told you not to eat the apple

How many times did I tell you?

Your friend the Serpent?

If he said jump off a cliff

Would you jump off a cliff, too?

The fruit was poisoned and made you lose your mind

When you pass judgment, you leave paradise behind

You see good and evil, everywhere is right and wrong

You can't be satisfied and you can't get along

You ate the apple

I told you not to eat the apple

How many times did I tell you?

What were you thinking?

Didn't you know you had it made

Livin’ here in the garden?

You ate the apple

You had to taste forbidden fruit

You had to look behind the curtain

It used to be simple, you had no fear or shame

Now you know too much and it's never gonna be same

Instead of layin’ here in the shade you're gonna toil out in the sun

I got a whole new set of rules, it used to be just one

You ate the apple

I told you not to eat the apple

How many times did I tell you?

Go put some clothes on

If you’re gonnna try to dress yourself

You’ll need more than a fig leaf

When you have your own kids

You can make up your own rules

Right now don’t cry to me

The fruit was poisoned and made you lose your mind

When you pass judgment, you leave paradise behind

You see good and evil, everywhere is right and wrong

You can't be satisfied and you can't get along

You ate the apple?

I told you not to eat the apple, how many times did I tell you?
