lyrics
When I woke up this morning,
Whistling a happy feeling,
Drinking brand new water,
Breathing like I'd never breathed,
Everything was orange
Orange like a daisy,
Orange like an orange popsickle
(Yeah, I like that)
That's how I let the cat out of the bag, now.
That’s when I left the birdcage open.
That‘s why I walked the dog around the block.
Throw away the leash, 'cause I got the oranges.
I had the blues but that was yesterday.
Those blues might come right back tomorrow.
But something tells me doesn’t work like that.
Step right up and you got the oranges.
Orange, it doesn't rhyme with anything.
I've heard that since I was eleven.
But that’d never stop me revvin‘ up
And gettin‘ down, down 'cause I got the oranges.
It's my favorite color.
Comes from right off the rainbow.
Grows right out your window.
In your door, grocery store.
You can have this feeling.
Give it to your girl, friendly.
You can say, “I love you."
(Orange love, now.)
If I could trade it for anything,
I’d change it just an iota.
I‘d mail it round the world in eighty days,
Especially delivered when you got the oranges.
Orange, there’s two ways of pronouncing it.
Orange, can’t add it with an apple.
Orange you glad l didn't say banana?
Welcome to fruition, now you got the oranges.
l am an animal too, now.
The kind who’d pedal in a orange grove.
That's me, the fellow with the clothes on.
Hunker down, down ’cause I got the oranges.
I can make this music, now.
You can make reaction.
Maybe get some action.
Mardi gras, Florida.
Orange for a day, now.
Orange is the day, now.
Orange, like an orange tricycle.
(I think so.)
We could go swimming ‘round my neighborhood.
We’ll fly around to all the rooftops.
We’ll burrow into someone’s living room
And borrow cups of sugar, ’cause we got the oranges.
I have the faintest idea, now.
I’ve got the foggiest of notions.
I’ll take the feel good medicine.
Nothing to it when you got the oranges.
I had the blues for a little while.
Those blues they didn't get me anywhere.
I’d walk a mile for your chamomile
And put me down, down 'cause I got the oranges.
I am an animal too, now.
I've been a-ridden round the race track.
Down for the count, but now comin' back,
So put me down, sign me up, 'cause I got the oranges.
I’ll take the rest of the afternoon.
I’ll seize the means of production.
I’ve got the music in me spillin' out
And anything can happen when you got the oranges.
