Lyrics
I went out one afternoon and braved the market queue to purchased for you a frozen apple pie I took it to you that night Warmed it and cut a slice With cream, whipped and iced You tasted it and said "Your store-bought goods are not enough, they're not enough If you want to win my heart, you'll have to do so much More with your time, more with your mind Your store-bought goods are not enough, they're not enough" So I looked up the address Of a restaurant with a chef Whose apple pies were the best that our borough had to offer We ordered the best they had You tasted it, said, "It's not bad, But please don't be mad When I say...." And she said, "This fancy restaurant is not enough, it's not enough If you want to win my heart, you'll have to do so much More with your time, more with your mind This fancy restaurant is not enough, it's not enough" So I drove to the country And picked an apple from a grove So I could set to making the dough To bake my own apple pie I served it to you fresh You said, "This is marvelous! But still I feel that I must confess to you..." "Your home-baked food is not enough, it's not enough If you want to win my heart, you'll have to do so much More with your time, more with your mind Your home-baked food is not enough, it's not enough" So I became an astronomer And learned how the cosmos works And I set to making my own universe Just for you I built a lab, and I made it there, And in that universe there was you And there was me and there was apple pie And that you said to me, "All the things you've done are just enough, it's just enough It seems you've won my heart by doing so much It's how you've spent your time, your beautiful mind All the things you've done are just enough, it's just enough" But that didn't matter to me 'Cause that was in there, and you were out here So I took you to my lab To show you what I had done You looked carefully at it. You seemed sort of impressed, But still, you thought it kind of weird, And you said to me, this: "All the things you've done are not enough, it's not enough You'll never win my heart, even doing so much So much with your time, you've a beautiful mind But all the things you've done are not enough, it's not enough Your store-bought goods are not enough, they're not enough A fancy restaurant is not enough, it's not enough Your home-baked food is not enough, it's not enough All the things you've done are not enough, it's not enough"
