Neutered Fruit Lyrics

[Intro]
Did you ever really stare at me?
Did you ever really stare at me...
Like I stared at you?


[Verse 1]
I ate flowers in the backyard
A finely neutered fruit
Shot a hundred arrows at a doe
A hundred sparrows booed


[Chorus]
Did you ever really stare at me?
Did you ever really stare?
Did you ever really stare at me...
Like I stared at you?

[Verse 2]
Don't run
Don't run, little rabbit, run

Don't run
Don't run, little bunny, run

[Chorus]
Did you ever really stare at me?
Did you ever really stare?
Did you ever really stare at me...
Like I stared at you?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

A fruit is a ripened ovary of a plant, so a neutered fruit would be an infertile ovary. This is an analogy for loveless love or a relationship that is lacking love from one person.
