Bruno Is Orange

Bruno, what did you tell that man?

He's a clever man, did you know?

I bet he works for the goverment

And I know you know I know

I can't control thoughts of things I needed

I believe everybody needs some encouragement

I think it's real unfair

That you should put him there

All we did is kiss

On my grave, I swear

Where did you find his shoes?

A lock of my hair?

All we did is kiss

On my grave, I swear

Some dull morning we were wearing sheets

And he whispered: I think that they know better than me

See this hand that pushed you into the creek?

I'm sorry, was just fun, and you were laughing

We were running towards the street

And I wrote my name into the fresh painted yellow line

And you wrote your name right there next to mine

We had to dodge a truck

He almost hit a bug

I think we had some luck

And for two bucks

We bought some bread

And fed the grey geese

And the ducks

Everyone will come

Everyone will yell

I'd thank you just the same

If you didn't tell

My mother says that I will surely go to hell

Please be a good man

Please say you won't tell

Did you know that that boy is an armed man?

Bearing flowers into hands

Very able to hold me down

(And love me more than anyone)

Bruno, what happened to your good sense?

I broke down, that man's good

I bet he works for the goverment

Did you hear about that mother?

Broke her daughter's legs in two

And said: It's too dangerous out there to walk, so I had to save you

I think it's real unfair

That you should put him there

All we did is kiss

On my grave, I swear

Where did you find his shoes?

A lock of my hair?

All we did is kiss

On my grave, I swear

Everyone will come

Everyone will yell

I'd thank you just the same

If you didn't tell

My mother says that I will surely go to hell

Please be a good man

Please say you won't tell

Bruno, did you know that the greeks in morning would eat oranges?

They were firm believers in fruit-curing fevers

And I agree

See, they believe that an orange warms the stomach
