Here We Go Round The Lemon Tree lyrics

There`s a girl next door to me who`s round the bend
But she wonders why she can`t make any friends
From her garden she could see me
In her silver-clad bikini
Singing, dancing round her fruit tree

*Here we go round the lemon tree
Mister, can`t you hear me
Here we go round the lemon tree
Mister, don`t come near me

Could I calm her down by throwing stones at her
If only I could make the right approach to her
Think I`d rather tame a tiger
Turn those lemons into cider
Still I`d like to get beside her

(*repeat)

Three o`clock in the morning
I could her her toneless singing
I could smell her lemon perfume in the air
I walked up to the window
In the hope that I might see her
Could the deadly shade of night still bring her there

(*repeat)

Morning came and into action went my plans
Went to meet her dressed in bright green underpants
I crept in and sang discreetly
Seemed to change your mind discreetly
Danced together singing sweetly

(*repeat)

(*repeat and fade
