When oranges are bitter reminders of your negetivity, acidic, burning peels; sometimes it's best just to get it over with and peel them all.

Verse
All the trees have borne this bitter fruit, that burns my fingers
Still we eat it every day though it takes our smiles away


Pre-Chorus
You can find this fruit in every home and every single car
But I won’t peel or eat the orange, that holds my misery

Chorus
Peel the orange, that holds my misery, holds my misery
Peel the orange, yeah
Peel the orange, that holds my misery

Verse
I’ve got a thousand oranges, put each one into crates
I’ve got one crate that hates, one crate that waits for a better day
Peelin’ oranges for today, for today


Pre-Chorus
You can find this fruit in every home and every single car
But I won’t peel or eat the orange, that holds my misery

Chorus
Peel the orange, that holds my misery, holds my misery
Peel the orange, yeah
Peel the orange, that holds my misery, holds my misery

Bridge
I’ve got one orange that I ate yesterday
And I got some oranges that I save for tomorrow
But my favorite are the oranges that I’ve got for today
For today

Chorus
Peel the orange, that holds my misery, holds my misery
Peel the orange, yeah
Peel the orange, that holds my misery, holds my misery
Peel the orange, yeah
Peel the orange, that holds my misery, holds my misery
repeat
