[Verse 1]
See Adam's apple
Sitting on top of his head?
It's not there for a target
Go shoot at somebody else
It fell from the treetops
And now he knows just what it's like to fall down
Now he's a genius
A genius
[Pre-Chorus]
And now he's
[Chorus]
Food for a flock of birds and a bed of ants
But he'll take his chance and he'll keep the faith
He reminds me of Johnny Appleseed
Right down to his apple core
Though his bag's getting empty
He's already won
Planted dreams are behind him
Growing in the sun
[Verse 2]
Look even closer
Watch as he sings and he drinks
See Adam's apple
Watch as it rises and sinks
That's how his luck goes
But just give him a note and he'll make a chord
And every so often
A whole song
[Pre-Chorus]
And now he's
[Chorus]
Food for a flock of birds and a bed of ants
But he'll take his chance and he'll keep the faith
He reminds me of Johnny Appleseed
Right down to his apple core
Though his bag's getting empty
He's already won
Planted dreams are behind him
Growing in the sun
[Bridge]
Keep the faith and
Walk don't crawl though
Cynics never
Care at all
Keep the faith and
Walk don't crawl though
(Strings may break)
Cynics never
(And hopes may fall)
Care at all
Keep the faith and
Walk don't crawl though
(Strings may break)
Cynics never
(And hopes may fall)
Care at all
[Pre-Chorus]
And now he's
[Chorus]
Food for a flock of birds and a bed of ants
But he'll take his chance and he'll keep the faith
He reminds me of Johnny Appleseed
Right down to his apple core
Though his bag's getting empty
He's already won
Planted dreams are behind him
Growing in the sun
[Outro]
Though his bag's getting empty
He's already won
