According to Aaron Freeman:
“I remember writing the guitar solo first and being very pleased with myself because it sounded like something Prince would have written. The rest of the song was based around an old electric-organ type keyboard that I had pulled out of the trash. The lyrics were really...
[Verse 1]
Take a piece of tinsel and put it on the tree
Cut a slab of melon and pretend that you still love me
Carve out a pumpkin and rely on your destiny
Get in your car and cruise the land of the brave and free
[Chorus]
But don't forget to understand exactly what you put on the tree
Don't believe the florist when he tells you that the roses are free
[Verse 2]
Take a wrinkled raisin, and do with it what you will
Push it into third if you know you're gonna climb a hill
Eat plenty of lasagna 'til you know that you've had your fill
Resist all the urges that make you wanna go out and kill
[Chorus]
But don't forget to understand exactly what you put on the tree
Don't believe the florist when he tells you that the roses are free
[Verse 3]
Throw that pumpkin at the tree
Unless you think that pumpkin holds your destiny
Cast it off into the sea
Bake that pie and eat it with me
