Apples and Oranges Neil Bartram

[OLIVER]
I never really liked apples,
though heaven knows I tried.
'Cause it's just weird to hate apples,
so for years and years I lied.

I never really liked apples,
it's not a choice per se.
I don't know why,
I guess that I was simply born this way.

I never really liked apples,
though I grew up in Spokane.
Where all they've done is grow apples,
since the day the world began.

So I hid my feelings for apples,
it's a skill I learned to hone.
And as I grew, I guess I knew
I'd always be alone.

But I've always liked oranges,
from my earliest memories.
Even though there's no
orange trees in Washington State.
