Fruit label, fruit label, What is your purpose, Is it to inform us, Or just here to urk us? Do you just grow , Right on the fruit, Or are you applied, By some sulry brute? I don't need to see, Your nuisance sticker, To tell me just who Was your underpaid picker! You stick to my fruit, Resisting extraction, Mocking my strength, With smug satisfaction! I can see it so well, "Was a good man" they'll say, "He exercised much, Ate five fruits a day" "But he died so young, So strong and so able, Cause of the death? Ate too many fruit labels!"
