let us die, let us die! 
in dying we reply

E
and lower our baskets down into the open bed
of the fruit truck passing by

Am
and we can smile at each other again
me and my cantelope friend

E
cast our cares at the couple of pears
put a blueberry garland on an apple bed

Am
the apple threw our half baked fears
like a wooden shoe in the windmill gear

E
the turning stopped and we clearly saw
the flaws in that which finds the flaw

Am
the strawberry said to the tangerine
"my face is red but our hats are green"

E
be it orchard or a curling vine
the son of yours is the Son that's my
God...

Am
lettuce grows, lettuce grows
in neatly sectioned beds and rows

E
but one day asked the gardener
to be moved to where the eggplant goes

Am
"reason being, i must confess
i adore her shining purple dress"

E
as the eggplant listened in
she wasn't offended but she wasn't impressed

Am
the potato called from underground
"you've got it all turned upside down!

E
does the rain that sent each spring anew
to fall on her not fall on you?

Am
you project on her your inward scene
she's a blank external movie screen

E
but the One who looks out from your eyes
                                                   Am
looks through hers and looks through mine
