E D#m C#m D#m B
I eat a mango and I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
E D#m C#m D#m B
Star fruit so simple and I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
E D#m C#m D#m B
How could I feel so so when I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
E D#m C#m D#m B
Tart but not total and I'm feeling like a little honey can roll
G#m C#m
When I was young I thought fruit was an infinite thing
F# E
I'd be sad to wake up and find all of my cherries are charred or they're rotted to ruin
F#
It seems we all can't last
E
Oh pink lady your days so distinguished are a movement so fluid
F#
So smooth against my palm
E F#
Reminisce of the days when they all praised your sweet red delicious
A B A B
When a farmer picks a good thing (when you think you don't know you don't know what comes next)
A B A B
Then a kid he picks a good thing (When you think you don't know you don't know what comes next)
A B A B
Then a chef she makes a good thing (When you think you don't know you don't know what comes next)
A B A B
Then a mayor eats a good thing (When you think you don't know you don't know what comes next)
C#m F# C#m F#
Ripe and whole we can move outside us (x4)
B E
Take for me take for me pictures of valleys with lemons hung
F# B
Dangling dangling they will be released every little piece does make a one
E C#m
Brown on the ground can you show me a way I can simplify
D#m B
Comfort me comfort me after the battles and sleepless nights
E
I'm just a rush
D#m C#m F#
Rush to blow upon the fire
E
You're just a rush
D#m C#m F#
Rush to blow open my mind
(x2)

G#m C#m
When I want fruit I can find it wherever I please
F# E
What if I should wake up and find dudes on the street waiting in lines or scrounging for berries?
F#
I'm losing things so fast
E F#
One day maybe I'll have a cool kid with a granny but I don't have a pose for applesauce on clothes
E F#
Reminisce of the days when my mom made it all seem delicious
