The Lemon Tree Lyrics - Electric Light Orchestra

There's a girl next door to me who's round the bend 

But she wonders why she can't make any friends 

From her garden she could see me 

In her silver-clad bikini 

Singing, dancing round her fruit tree 

 

Here we go round the lemon tree 

Mister, can't you hear me 

Here we go round the lemon tree 

Mister, don't come near me 

 

Could I calm her down by throwing stones at her 

If only I could make the right approach to her 

Think I'd rather tame a tiger 

Turn those lemons into cider 

Still I'd like to get beside her 

 

Chorus 

 

Three o'clock in the morning 

I could her her toneless singing 

I could smell her lemon perfume in the air 

I walked up to the window 

In the hope that I might see her 

Could the deadly shade of night still bring her there 

 

Chorus 

 

Morning came and into action went my plans 

Went to meet her dressed in bright green underpants 

I crept in and sang discreetly 

Seemed to change your mind discreetly 

Danced together singing sweetly 

 

Chorus 

 

Chorus
