Billie Marten
Bad Apple
[Verse 1]
Well I just like to sing
Forget everything
And write of colour and string
Talk of life in the sea
But none of that will ever be
Healthy for society
Mmm

[Verse 2]
Teacher, tell us when
People hurt the people every now and then
What’s that all about?
Hurting one another
Finding no way out
What a time, what a time
Mmm

[Chorus]
Who am I? Honey, riddle me that
How can I say what’s white and what’s black?
Who am I? Got some knuckles to crack
Everybody’s riding on my back

[Verse 2]
She said life is like this fruit
Wholesome, good, and green at the root
But if it drops to the floor
What you get is bruises
And a love of a rotten core-ore-ore-ore ah-ah-ah-ah-mm
Core-ore-ore-ore ah-ah-ah-ah-mm
[Chorus]
Who am I? Honey, riddle me that
How can I say what’s white and what’s black?
Who am I? Got some knuckles to crack
Everybody’s riding on my back

[Outro]
Wearing animal skin
With no state to be in
Choosing good over sin
How sweet
Wearing animal skin
With no state to be in
Choosing good over sin
How sweet
