Song Lyrics

Tending my fruit, tending my fruit
Ah you`ve got to have a hobby
A man must have a shed to keep him sane

Spraying my buds, spraying my buds
Got to keep away diseases
I mix the poisons and the wife don`t complain

Some people say
That I am out of my tree
Or just a strawberry fool
Someday they`ll see
`Til then I`ll blow you a raspberry
`Cos apples and pears are me

So I`m tending my fruit
And I don`t give a hoot
`Cos it keeps me sane, it keeps me sane

Some people say
That I am out of my tree
Or just a strawberry fool
Someday they`ll see
`Til then I`ll blow you a raspberry
`Cos apples and pears are me

So I`m tending my fruit, tending my fruit
Ah you`ve got to have a hobby
A man must have a shed to keep him sane
To keep him sane, to keep him sane, to keep him sane

Oh the wife can`t complain
To keep him sane, to keep him sane, yeah keeps him sane
Yeah to keep him sane, to keep him sane, yeah it keeps him sane
