Second Bite of the Apple Lyrics

Shake my tree where’s the apple for me
Tickle my feet with the enemy (NME)
No point laughing if you don’t know why
I phone my love just to hear her smile
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is up if you’re tough enough
Girl in the queue, got an eye on you
Think you’re in and she’s looking for sin?
Yes you’re not wrong
She wants to know what’s in your pocket
Singing that song, dig it all night long
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is if you’re tough enough
Come on! Show what you love now
Come on! Show what you love now
Come on! Show what you love now
Come on! Show what you love now
Shake my tree where’s the apple for me
Tickle my feet with the NME (enemy)
No point laughing if you don’t know why
I phone my love just to hear her smile
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is if you’re tough enough
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is up if you’re tough enough
The word is if you’re tough enough
Come on! Show what you love now
Come on! Show what you love now
Come on! Show what you love now
Come on! Show what you love now

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Takes a while to love this song but boy is it worth it. Robbie Williams reckons this needs a chorus, and I'm not sure, he could be right. But it does pretty well on it's own. I think it takes a while to get going, onee of the criticisms levelled at this album is the substandard of Liam's lyrics, but in this case, perhaps the lyrics are also taking up too much space, the verse in particular. But by the end it's perfect, it builds and builds and blasts off. Yeah, I agree about the lyrics. I'd love to hear this at the beginning of a pub crawl in the afternoon sometime! One for the lads!
