They called the "Buff Boy" to clear my table.
He winked, said I'm ready, willing, and able!
I was eating kumquats after a couple squats,
And ran screaming back home to my wife Mable!
The following week, I was doing some curls,
On the Thigh Master, was some pretty girls.
Their nostrils flaring, cuz they caught me staring,
I must have looked like a swine casting pearls.
After that, those long walks to the gym were over!
Get a new hobby, Mable said, ambition drove her.
Wasn't no conductor, so became an instructor,
Now, I own that damn gym, walking in tall clover!

Rush to my house I have kumquats, you said
They're ripe, moist and sweet, I'm right here in bed
An eager beaver, I raced
But my high hopes were misplaced
Your spouse was eating your kumquat instead

~ Since I never knew,
I thought I'd share this with you ~
No larger than olives or grapes
They're orange and oval in shape
They grow on a tree
And O! Mercy me!
Tart flavors from kumquats escape!

Lemons are sour and limes are green
mandarins are as sweet is anything
I like oranges
Kumquats and clementines have funny names
grapefruits and pomelos taste the same
I like oranges
Sweeties are as sweet is citrus goes
but I would rather eat a tangelo
I like oranges
Uglis help make your skin gleam
for high cholesterol eat a tangerine
I like oranges
Oranges oranges nay nay nay
makes a tasty marmalade
Orange soda is the best
OJ makes your breakfast
Orange Kool-AId childhoods
orange Hi-C is understood
Orange sherbet, zest from the peal
orange is a fantastic smell
Eat them raw piece by piece
oranges are a juicy feast
Orange candies fun to eat
oranges are a favorite treat
I like oranges

Tutti Fruiti
Lovers ladling luscious love sips,
Kiss kumquats for passionate pair.
Peaches and pears and purple plums
Fresh fruit fritters fling affair
Love apples, appetite appealing,
Lovely lips in tasty tender
Nectar needing naught to sweeten
Sweethearts sail to swift surrender.
Cantaloupe couple, cozily connected
In wonder of their wedded bliss.
Passion preferred fruit of choice,
Juxtaposed in juicy kiss.
Sailing on the sensual seas
Of Italian idyll indolence.
Feasting on forbidden fruits,
Nuptial love as their defense.
