about

I wrote five lyrics to this song based on random Wikipedia articles. They were all terrible, so I just combined them into one song and they surprisingly make more sense that way.

lyrics

When Apples Were Golden

Verse 1

Back when apples were golden
Back when the sky was blue
When the world looked beautiful
Maybe for me, not for you

I have things to borrow and lend
but there had to come a day
So at tomorrow at ten
I'll be on my way

Verse 2

They love to play with the devil
Stay away from the women of death
Rituals on another level
Curses from the depths of her breath

There's no sense in counting
There's no safety in numbers now
When you're on Dyers Mountain
It won't matter anyhow

Bridge

For some the apples are rotting
For some they are golden still
For some the apples are rotting

Verse 3

I didn't meet her at a road
I met her at a café
With a "haven't we met before?"
She took my life that day


I must rid my sorrows by then
I must hold my pants by the seams
Cuz at tomorrow at ten
I'll meet the girl of my dreams

Ends

For some the apples are rotten
For some they're golden still
For some they're as golden
As they'll ever be
