Cut a slab of melon and pretend that you still love me
Carve out a pumpkin and rely on your destiny
Get in your car and cruise the land of the brave and free
But don't forget to understand
Exactly what you put on the tree
Don't believe the florist when he tells you
That the roses are free
Take a wrinkled raisin and do with it what you will
Push it into third if you know you're gonna climb a hill
Eat plenty of lasagna till you know that you've had your fill
Resist all the urges that make you wanna go out and kill
But don't forget to understand
Exactly what you put on the tree
Don't believe the florist when he tells you
That the roses are free
Throw that pumpkin at the tree
Unless you think that pumpkin holds your destiny
Cast it off into the sea
Bake that pie and eat it with me
Throw that pumpkin at the tree
Unless you think that pumpkin holds your destiny
Cast it off into the sea
Bake that pie and eat it with me
Take a piece of tinsel and put it on the tree Cut a slab of melon and pretend that you still love me Carve out a pumpkin and rely on your destiny Get in your car and cruise the land of the brave and free But don't forget to understand Exactly what you put on the tree Don't believe the florist when he tells you That the roses are free Take a wrinkled raisin and do with it what you will Push it into third if you know you're gonna climb a hill Eat plenty of lasagna till you know that you've had your fill Resist all the urges that make you wanna go out and kill But don't forget to understand Exactly what you put on the tree Don't believe the florist when he tells you That the roses are free Throw that pumpkin at the tree Unless you think that pumpkin holds your destiny Cast it off into the sea Bake that pie and eat it with me Throw that pumpkin at the tree Unless you think that pumpkin holds your destiny Cast it off into the sea Bake that pie and eat it with me Explain Request ×
