about

lyrics

Linus
You're the finest
More of a plus than a minus
Linus
Your highness
who leads from behind
He’s kind of tricky, and full of guile
As he leads leads you all astray, with style
Linus
your slyness
Apricots the leg-lifting way

Roxy
You’re so foxy
And I know that you’ve got the moxie
Roxy
You chew the soxies
And leave the threads behind
She likes to stand in an epic pose
And you can’t help but grab her pointy nose
Roxy
Your heterodoxy
Apricot the distaff side

When her brother comes to stay
It’s a canine holiday
Running and jumping and playing games
It’s like a poodle souffle
Linus likes to eat paper
Roxy likes to bury her bone
Then they both jump up on the couch
To bark at the ringing phone

Roxy/Linus
You’re so foxy/You’re the finest
More of a plus than a minus
Linus/Roxy
Your Highness/Missy Moxie
They are the Apricot twins
She likes to bury her bone in our bed
He’s only interested in chewing it dead
Roxy/Linus
You’re so foxy/You’re the finest
Apricots are here to stay!
