Lyrics

The New Orange
(Bradford Heck)
copyright 2017


Keep your hands off all of our girls
Daughters, wives, my niece
They aren't property you own
You don't have a lease

Heard that you've got some "so-called" yuge ideas
Drain the swamp, build a fence
Bargains where for every dollar that's owed
You only pay two cents (only pay two cents)

Of all the people you have met
There's no one you won't demean
You've soiled your honor saying nyet
Your careless words can crush a dream

I can't believe what comes out of your mouth
Stuff that sounds insane
Giggles and horror and dread lives with me
When I hear your name (when I hear your name)


I don't understand
Don't know why any man
Would say the things that you do

You say we shouldn't care
We should stop splitting hairs
Guess the new orange is you


Your head is stuffed up full of lies
Must be that fake intellect
You're always so obsessed with size
Makes us wonder and suspect

You never let the truth stand in your way
You whine and moan and bitch
It's all for one and one for all
At least if you are rich (only if you're rich)

I don't understand
Don't know why any man
Would say the things that you do

You said you'd change your tone
But it's become a drone
Sounds like the same old you

Mexicans, muslims, immigrants and women
Transgender, Swedish, dis-abling conditions
Lets Judge people by the way that they act
Toss out the garbage called alternative facts
Time to elevate dignity, eliminate bigotry
Cause ripping it up, making it up, blowing it up,
To sum it up.....just ain't working, c'mon, help us please

I don't understand
The nature of a man
Who says the things that you do

Tell me how it can be
Our new reality
Where false is now what's true

I don't understand
Don't know why any man
Would say the things that you do

You say we shouldn't care
We should stop splitting hairs
Guess the new orange is you
Guess the new orange is you
Guess the new orange is you

I like the Beach Boys feel of this song with the layered vocals. It starts as a pop song and then in comes the slide guitar bringing it the country sound. I like the stop coming into the last verse, very effective and a good reset. This song is original, I like it! Interesting lyrics. Great ending.

This song is a 5 star wow. It's a political tirade against Donald Trump, actually respectfully and really well done. The lyrics are fresh, original, heartfelt and clever. Really good rhyming work (intellect/suspect; bitch/rich) I am sure this would go over well in most liberal circles, but not at a Trump Rally.

Love it! its a novelty song but id love to hear this on the radio. nicely produced. words are clear and clever
