George Apple Sings

Imaging George Apple singing this ditty like Data on Star Trek

Oh … I have a little pumpkin

Let’s say I’ve named him Clyde

I want him for dessert

perhaps a pumpkin pie

But Clyde he just keeps running

Away from me he hides

Don’t want him for his outsides

But for his plump insides

Chock full of orange stuffing

From purees to magic seeds

Soups and pies and souffles

He’s keeping from me

Oh …. Where’s old Clyde a Hiding

I got to cut him wide

Open at the top part

And scoop him clean inside

Then carve him for the children

And roast his pumpkin seeds

Oh wherefore art thou

Pumpkin dumpling

The one that I call Clyde?
