Hop Along, Queen Ansleis Lyrics

"Bruno Is Orange"

Bruno, what did you tell that man?
He's a clever man, did you know?
I bet he works for the government
And I know you know I know
I can't control thoughts of things I needed
I believe everybody needs some encouragement

I think it's real unfair that you should put him there
All we did is kiss, on my grave, I swear
Where did you find his shoes? A lock of my hair?
All we did is kiss, on my grave, I swear
I think it's real unfair that you should put him there
All we did is kiss, on my grave, I swear
Where did you find his shoes? A lock of my hair?
All we did is kiss, on my grave, I swear

Some dull morning we were wearing sheets
And he whispered, "I think that they know better than me."
See this hand that pushed you into the creek?
I'm sorry, was just fun, and you were laughing
We were running towards the street
And I wrote my name into the fresh painted yellow line
And you wrote your name right there next to mine

We had to dodge a truck
He almost hit a buck
I think we had some luck
And for two bucks
We bought some bread
And fed the grey geese
And the ducks

Everyone will come, everyone will yell
I'd thank you just the same if you didn't tell
My mother says that I will surely go to hell
Please be a good man, please say you won't tell
Everyone will come, everyone will yell
I'd thank you just the same if you didn't tell
My mother says that I will surely go to hell
Please be a good man, please say you won't tell

Did you know that that boy is an armed man?
Bearing flowers into hands
Very able to hold me down
(And love me more than anyone)

Bruno, what happened to your good sense?
I broke down, that man's good
I bet he works for the government
Did you hear about that mother?
Broke her daughter's legs in two
And said, "It's too dangerous out there to walk, so I had to save you"

I think it's real unfair that you should put him there
All we did is kiss, on my grave, I swear
Where did you find his shoes? A lock of my hair?
All we did is kiss, on my grave, I swear
I think it's real unfair that you should put him there
All we did is kiss, on my grave, I swear
Where did you find his shoes? A lock of my hair?
All we did is kiss, on my grave, I swear
Everyone will come, everyone will yell
I'd thank you just the same if you didn't tell
My mother says that I will surely go to hell
Please be a good man, please say you won't tell
Everyone will come, everyone will yell
I'd thank you just the same if you didn't tell
My mother says that I will surely go to hell
Please be a good man, please say you won't tell

Bruno, did you know that the Greeks in the morning would eat oranges?
They were firm believers in fruit curing fevers, and I agree
See, they believe that an orange warms the stomach
