Apple Tree Lyrics

First Verse:

Young single mothers slave away for the children of tomorrow, Dead beat daddy’s only concerned with young females who swallow, Young single fathers break their backs for minimum wage, Baby mothers only care for love island dramas, Young kings dreaming of a Al Capone lifestyle, Young queens dreaming of a Cinderella story, Both gender off springs come from one another, You’ve got to show love before they self-destruct, Once puberty hits Bare foolishness can you blame the kids? Throwing tantrums so we give them iPads, No discipline equals no listening, Ask them about their lineage and they'll start twiddling their thumbs, It’s not that they’re dumb, You’ve got to look at the parenting, Next time they ask a question, Don’t show them where the telly is...

Chorus:

Man, Woman or Child Him & Her, He & She The cradle of civilisation It started with Adam and Eve The apple don’t fall too far from the tree (X2)

Second Verse:

No father figures, No males calling her princess, So the only way she gets attention is through sex, Thinking it’s the route to unconditional love, When all it really does is makes the stomach turn, You can blame the world but it starts with us, Young Simbas growing up without Mufasas, getting into scraps, thinking that their hard now that they’ve got scars, It’s a damn shame when their locked behind bars, No woman to wipe the tears so we get them tattooed just to fill the void, When all it really shows that we’re still little boys, Drawn to the shadows of a tree, We take a bite from the apple and embrace the worm, Digesting the poison, Throwing out the aroma of life, The cycle repeats, Even though we have our eyes open we’re still asleep...

Chorus:

Man, Woman or Child Him & Her, He & She The cradle of civilisation It started with Adam and Eve The apple don’t fall too far from the tree (X4)
