Changing the Lyrics of a well known song


For our weekly Uni module we were asked to change the lyrics of a well known song.

I chose The Presidents of the USA's "Peaches".

Now I've got that damn song in my head.



Original Lyrics are in bold.

Rewritten lyrics are in italics.

Movin' to the country gonna eat a lot of peaches
I'm movin' to the country I'm gonna eat me a lot of peaches
I'm movin' to the country I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches
Peaches come from a can they were put there by a man
In a factory downtown
If I had my little way I'd eat peaches everyday
Sun soakin bulges in the shade

Lookin for some lovin’, gonna  find me some romance
I’m Lookin for some lovin’ gonna find me some romance
I’m Lookin’ for some lovin’ gonna find me some romance
Lookin’ for some lovin’ gonna find me some romance
Love comes from the heart, it was put there by someone
In a dream or in real life
If I had a choice I’d be loved everyday
Valentine’s Day Everyday


Movin' to the country I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country I'm gonna eat a lot of peaches
I'm movin to the country gonna eat a lot of peaches
Movin' to the country gonna eat a lot of peaches

Lookin for some lovin’, gonna  find me some romance
Lookin for some lovin’, gonna  find me some romance
I’m Lookin’ for some lovin’, gonna  find me some romance
Lookin for some lovin’, gonna  find me some romance


I took a little nap where the roots all twist
Squished a rotten peach in my fist
And dreamed about you woman
I poked my finger down inside makin' a little room for a ant to hide
Nature's candy in my hand or can or a pie
Found someone for a tryst
I didn’t think I’d have the tricks
And dreamed about your lovin’
There’s space in my heart, made some room for your love
Sweet love in the air, in my mind and in my heart


Millions of peaches peaches for me
Millions of peaches peaches for free
Millions of peaches peaches for me
Millions of peaches peaches for free
Plenty of lovin’, lovin’ for you
Plenty of lovin’, lovin for me
Plenty of lovin’, lovin’ for you
Plenty of lovin’, lovin’ for  me

Look out

Love Life

Millions of peaches peaches for me
Millions of peaches peaches for free
Millions of peaches peaches for me
Millions of peaches peaches for free

Look out

Plenty of lovin’, lovin’ for you
Plenty of lovin’, lovin for me
Plenty of lovin’, lovin’ for you
Plenty of lovin’, lovin’ for  me

Love Life
