Rage Against the Fruit Machine

Hey what’s wrong with our fruit?

It’s poison at the root.

They’ve laid to waste the normal taste,

to make a little loot.

 

I bought some lovely pears,

but got caught unawares.

A taste so bland and dry as sand,

like boxes filled with hairs.

 

I tried some nectarines,

the fruitly treat of queens.

Despite the hype they were not ripe,

the supermarket fiends!

 

I went and bought some more,

but left two days before

I took a bite, oh holy shite!

they’re rotten to the core!

 

But now I’m wide awake,

our fruit’s not theirs to take.

I’ll use the grocer cos he’s closer

and his fruit’s not fake.
