I never really liked apples,
though heaven knows I tried.
'Cause it's just weird to hate apples,
so for years and years I lied.

I never really liked apples,
it's not a choice per se.
I don't know why,
I guess that I was simply born this way.

I never really liked apples,
though I grew up in Spokane.
Where all they've done is grow apples,
since the day the world began.

So I hid my feelings for apples,
it's a skill I learned to hone.
And as I grew, I guess I knew
I'd always be alone.

But I've always liked oranges,
from my earliest memories.
Even though there's no
orange trees in Washington State.
But still I liked oranges,
it's an urge I was shy to admit.
To me apples where apples,
but oranges where "it."

Well, I left home and the apples
I had passions to pursue.
I started my own adventure
and enrolled at NYU.

I was shy and minded my business,
then I met Mike one day.
He seemed so nice, so I broke
the ice and found the nerve to say.

"I've always liked oranges."
Crap! What a strange conversation start.
He said:

[MIKE]
"Dude here's the strangest part,
I like oranges too."

[BOTH]
We're two guys who like oranges,
who were sent a clear message by faith:
"We don't have to like apples,
oranges are great."
[OLIVER]
That moment left quite an impression.
That moment a light bulb went off.
I remember the years of repression,
and my worries that people would scoff.

All those times that I tried liking apples,
seemed at once like a meaningless waste.

And I learned there with Mike,
that you like what you like,
and there is just no accounting for taste.

[BOTH]
Now we're proud to like oranges,
and we walk with our heads held high.

[OLIVER]
Because I found another guy,
who loves the things that I love.

[MIKE]
And so did I.

[BOTH]
We both like oranges!
[OLIVER]
He's so handsome.

[MIKE]
And he's awfully cute.

[OLIVER]
If you're looking for morals,
we"ll give it a shot.

[MIKE]
There are those who like apples
and those who do not.

[BOTH]
So whatever your preference,
embrace what you've got.
It's a big world.
Find your favorite fruit!
