Mr. Applegate
Mr. Applegate's got a serious problem
Mr. Applegate is on his way out
Mr. Applegate don't know how to solve it
Mr. Applegate is a victim of his doubt
Bridge:
Hasn't got heaven clearance
Didn't pay his fire insurance
Chorus:
Oh Mr. Applegate why did you leave it so late
Oh Mr. Applegate was is the apple you ate
Mr. Applegate never got married
To be alone was the road the chose
And bitterness was his only companion
Did he know love? I guess nobody knows
Bridge:
Hasn't got heaven clearance
Didn't pay his fire insurance
Chorus:
Oh Mr. Applegate why did you leave it so late
Oh Mr. Applegate was it the apple you ate
Mr. Applegate didn't like to dance or sing
Thought church was about putting money in the offering
Well it seems it's come to haunt him
As he breathes his last breath
There's no sign of a happy life, as his body is laid to rest!
Chorus:
Oh Mr. Applegate why did you leave it so late
Oh Mr. Applegate was it the apple you ate
Oh Mr. Applegate why did I leave it to late!!
