The Fruit Man Songtext
von Ween

The fruit man sold the guava to the Black man
The Black man peeled the skin with the bare hand
A juice man took a stand with the fruit man
And they cooked up the fish brought in fresh from the ocean


The fish man sold an axe to the boat man
A China man caused a scene with the Black man
Accused him of selling fish that was frozen
The Black man yelled at the China man

"It is not broken, it is not frozen
The fish, it was just caught in the ocean
I do not steal, don′t breathe another sound
Or I'll take back the fish and return it to the ocean!"

The fruit man consoled the Black man
The boatman explained to the China man
And it was dark, really dark, with the sun down
And the fish, they swam, they swam in the ocean
