lemons and pears is a song by Andrew Horowitz.

It was originally written for Toy Orchestra, a side project/affiliate band of Tally Hall during their time at the University of Michigan.[1] It would later make its way to Andrew's album sketches, released under the moniker edu.

A re-mixed and remastered version of Lemons and Pears was released as a single to streaming services on the 19th of June 2019, ahead of the release of sketches 3d.[2]

Trivia

  • Despite the 'Toy Orchestra' version in the Sketches 3D album missing the first verse, the version upload to the Toy Orchestra's SoundClick page includes it.[3] Why it was removed is unknown.
  • The version seen in MISFORTUNE does something similar, cutting out the first half of the track and the second half of the third verse, vastly shortening it.[4]


Lyrics

I asked "Lemon, please get off my mind"
She said "I can't do that, I'm confined"
I said "I think it's unfair that you can't breathe.
Please be nice, pretend it's Christmas Eve"

You've been stuck here since Forember
Can't you just remember 
How to go?

She said "I'm really sorry, it's not me
Can't you tell this to your diary?
Listen, I've moved on, I've met a boy named Pear
He's the sweetest, multi-pear-ionaire"

You've been stuck here since Forember
Can't you just remember 
How to go?

No. It's impossible
No. It's unfeasible
No. It's improbable
No. It's un-grapes-able

Next time that I think of you, I'll say
"I hope you'll have a really rotten day"
Then you'll say "I'm sorry, I was wrong
You and me will always have your song, and get along"

You've been stuck here since Forember
Can't you just remember
How to go?

No. It's impossible
No. It's unfeasible
No. It's improbable
No. It's im-peach-able

Toy Orchestra Version Lyrics

She said "I'm real sorry, it's not me
Can't you tell this to your diary?
Listen, I've moved on, I've met a boy named Pear
He's the sweetest, multi-millionaire"

You've been stuck here since Forember
Can't you just remember 
How to go?

No. It's impossible
No. It's unfeasible
No. It's improbable
No. It's unfeasible

Next time that I think of you, I'll say
"I hope you have a really rotten day"
Then you'll say "I'm sorry, I was wrong
You and me will always have a song, and get along"

You've been stuck here since Forember
Can't you just remember
How to go?

No. It's impossible
No. It's unfeasible
No. It's improbable
No. It's unfeasible
