Everything is fresh today

In a little town where I belong
There´s a most accomplished fellow
He´s the leader of the village choir
And his voice is warm and mellow
He drives a fruit cart around the street
And everybody knows it
He doesn´t sing or rave about his fruit
He simply blows it
He´s doing it all day long
It´s better than any song
Though it isn´t very pretty
You´ve got to admit it´s cute
So, all together, let it go
Eat more fruit
It´s certainly come to stay
It´s a treat to hear him say
Hey, fruit´s in season, plenty berries
Apples, plums and the old raspberries
Everything is fresh today
Every friday night when work is done
He never wastes a minute
To the village hall he hurries ´round
Where he sings just like a linnet
To hear him blow a melody
It´s great, you can´t deny it
And if you´ve nothing else to do
I´d like you all to try it
Get ready and do it now
It´s easy when you know how
Though it isn´t very pretty
You´ve got to admit it´s cute
So, all together, let it go
Eat more fruit
It´s certainly come to stay
It´s a treat to hear him say
Hey, do-te-la-so-fa-me-re-do
Everything is fresh today
It´s certainly come to stay
It´s a treat to hear him say
Hey, fruit´s in season, plenty berries
Apples, plums and the old raspberries
Everything is fresh today
There´s a most accomplished fellow
He´s the leader of the village choir
And his voice is warm and mellow
He drives a fruit cart around the street
And everybody knows it
He doesn´t sing or rave about his fruit
