Fruit Bowl Boogie

[Verse 1]
Monkey kids in the yard
Got banana hands
Swinging from the ropes
Like a tiny brass band

One’s got a peel cap
One’s got a grin
One’s got a bite mark
And ants marching in

[Pre-Chorus]
Then mama rounds the bend
With a bowl so wide
Shiny red apples
And a wild fruit tide

[Chorus]
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
Drop it in the middle
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
Make the babies giggle
Big and small
Sweet and raw
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
That’s the law

[Verse 2]
She sets it down slow
Like a queen on stage
Banana groove shining
In a fiber cage

Strawberry shake date
And watermelon red
Green and hard melon
Rolling near the bread

Baby mouths open
Like a curtain rise
Tiny shocked faces
Big round eyes

[Pre-Chorus]
Mama taps the rim
With a knowing smile
Says get your share now
Stay a while

[Chorus]
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
Drop it in the middle
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
Make the babies giggle
Big and small
Sweet and raw
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
That’s the law

[Bridge]
Some are medium rare
Some are full of ants
Some are not ready yet
But they all can dance

[Male Rap]
Peel to the left, then slide to the right
Mama got the whole spread on a bright porch night
Red in the center, green at the side
Juice on the floor when the little ones dive
Hands in the bowl, no time to be cool
Every little monkey wanna claim one jewel

[Female]
Come get your piece
Come get your taste
No fruit left behind
In this playful place

[Final Chorus]
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
Drop it in the middle
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
Make the babies giggle
Big and small
Sweet and raw
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
That’s the law

Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
Hear them cheer and call
Fruit bowl, fruit bowl
Mama brought it all
