Melon Felon

(to Donovan's "Mellow Yellow")

When I’m hungry for pro-duce

The grocer wants me to leave

When I’m hungry for large pro-duce

I like fruits that are free

They call me melon felon

They call me melon felon

They call me melon felon

I think cantaloupes lovely

Want a cantaloupe tree

That’s not natural, sadly

Mel-on-choly is me

I’m saddest melon felon

I’m saddest melon felon

I’m saddest melon felon

I want the melons nice sized

Thump them, how do they feel?

Then a sly endeavor I’ll try

Out the door, then melon for meal.

I’m such a melon felon

I’m such a melon felon

I’m such a melon felon

(I’ve felon love with melon)

Symmetrical cucumis

Is worthy of a longing gaze

Delectable cucumis

I gorge on them in favorite chaise

I’m hungry melon felon

I’m hungry melon felon

I’m hungry melon felon

Now I’m done (with my story)

Think my song’s about curves?

This song’s just about melons

Goodbye, ta-ta from me

So long from melon felon

So long from melon felon

So long from melon felon.
