Watermelon Man; written September 2010.
This song was written about my experiences during my stay away in Japan and how much I loved it. The title comes from a boy that I met, called Junpei and his stripey green pyjamas that made him look like a little watermelon. Adorable!
I came home from summer coming back to spring
Weeks had gone so fast they could have never ever been
And while I was away, I met a watermelon man
With his stripey green pyjamas and a tucked in waistband
His best bloody buddy had a big soul voice
Who took so many pictures that you didn't have a choice
To be in, or out observing them,
At least he was preserving them,
The best nights I'd ever ever had
(WATERMELON SAID!)
'Go Singing in the Night', don't be scared of your voice taking flight.
'Be Careful' what you say! Don't you ever let it run away!
Hold me tight, don't let me go..
JOKES, 'NO MEANING' JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!
Boo Boo Boo Boo Boo BOO
We went swimming in the sea and jumping out of boats
They made us wear life jackets just incase we didn't float
And our tutors didn't swim because they forgot their suits
Mikey wore his green shorts, we all ate dragonfruit
Ichariba cho de, I know my speech is pretty bad
But you guys are the best friends that I've ever ever had
Oh I will see you all again, when I get back to Japan
You know, you know it's my plan!
(BUT WHILE I'M AWAY!)
Go singing in the night, don't be scared of your voice taking flight
Be careful what you say! Don't you ever let it run away!
Hold me tight, don't let me go!
JOKES, NO MEANING, JUST LEAVE ME ALONE.
Boo Boo!
