Deiji Original: Marlene

Marlene! Another song I wrote in 2009! I wanted to write a song in third person since I usually write in second. And I also kinda wanted something that didn't make much sense. So here you have. And no Marlene is not a real person or based off of anyone I know. Just in case you were wondering... Thanks you guys!

Lyrics:
Marlene,
Fell in love with a pink tangerine,
She didn't know what she had seen,
When the roses turned from blue to green

Marlene,
life was a lot like a dream,
But many people called her obscene,
For the life she made with her tangerine

Marlene,
Killed herself the day she turned eighteen
When they found her afloat, with a note, that said quote "My regards to my sweet tangerine."

Nice song. Got 99 problems but a tangerine ain't one :)

@tonygrimsley Thanks man. Yeah falling in love with fruit would be a big one

You seriously changed this song from when I last heard it. I think I like it better this way. More unique.

@motopack Yeah I changed it up when I was getting ready to submit it for that song writing competition that I never entered. I like it this way too. =) It confuses people and I think it's funny
