Bad apple, rotten and dried
You can taste the demise in the b***
No friends, you barely begun
The worm and his army's arrived
You wished the branch that grew strong
Would've helped you along in the queue
Instead you're left on your own
Wasted and tasteless are you
Stagnate with infested regret
No longer a taste to pursue
I fell some time ago
I wasn't ready to roll and be bruised
My core's been under attack
And the thing that I lacked was a shield
No fight and unable to cry
Cause my juices had dried in the field
Oh well...
I land my feet in the dirt
So is this the moment for me?
To take root and cast a shade in the sun
And rise like a big apple tree
Oh well maybe it's meant to be
Buried amongst dead leaves
Biding my time 'til the dirt takes hold of me
It was hell but now there's a tale to tell
The sun sent a card to get well
The bad apple's broken the spell
Bad apple rotten and dried
That's what they used to call me
You can taste the demise in the b***
No friends, you barely begun
The worm and his army's arrived
You wished the branch that grew strong
Would've helped you along in the queue
Instead you're left on your own
Wasted and tasteless are you
Stagnate with infested regret
No longer a taste to pursue
I fell some time ago
I wasn't ready to roll and be bruised
My core's been under attack
And the thing that I lacked was a shield
No fight and unable to cry
Cause my juices had dried in the field
Oh well...
I land my feet in the dirt
So is this the moment for me?
To take root and cast a shade in the sun
And rise like a big apple tree
Oh well maybe it's meant to be
Buried amongst dead leaves
Biding my time 'til the dirt takes hold of me
It was hell but now there's a tale to tell
The sun sent a card to get well
The bad apple's broken the spell
Bad apple rotten and dried
That's what they used to call me
