In a room full of tangerines
Should I turn into a satsuma?
I suppose it's not as silly as it seems
For it's a sort of orange
And tangerines are...

Why do I need to change anyway?
I'm happy being a non-descript type of fruit.
I'm more a vegetable than anything, if I
Really think about it.

Do vegetables think?
If so, then there's hope for my school "friends".
If not, at least there is a McJob out there
For Mr Pleb and Ms Slob.

What about for "yours truly"
The non-descript tomato?
Will I be doomed or free
To make a life choice tailor-made for me?
I'm ripe, choking in the bell jar.
