Numbers On Lemons

I've sold numbers on lemons
But all the people want is a little bit of lemonade
All they really want is a better day

Taking longer breaks- AKA the art of calculation
Time cards on the sympathy racks are stealing our vacations

Pie charts full of poison apples
Overbaked and overpriced
Catching flies like trophies to beat the bigger guys

I've sold numbers on lemons
But all the people want is a little bit of lemonade
All they really want is a better day

Grocery store gurus behind conveyor belts
They are the outcomes for which the scientists account

I've done my fair share of that shit
Punching numbers to fill the baskets
Fruit trees in endless orchards
We're starving just to try and graph them

I've sold numbers on lemons
But all the people want is a little bit of lemonade
All they really want is a better day

I've sold numbers on lemons
But all the people want is a little bit of lemonade
All they really want is a better day

I've sold numbers on lemons
But all the people want is a little bit of lemonade
All they really want is a better day
