Peaches
S.C.A.R. Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

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 soaked in bowls just in the shade
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
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
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!
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!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of S.C.A.R.'s song "Peaches" can be seen as a playful ode to the simple pleasure of enjoying nature's bounty. The song tells the story of a person who is "movin' to the country" in order to indulge in one of their favorite fruits - peaches. The repetition of this line throughout the song highlights the singer’s excitement at the prospect of finally being able to enjoy as many peaches as they want.


The line "Peaches come from a can, they were put there by a man/In a factory downtown" seems to be a tongue-in-cheek nod to the reality of modern food production. The singer acknowledges the fact that many of the peaches we consume today are mass-produced and sold in cans, rather than being freshly picked from a tree. However, the singer also expresses a desire to enjoy peaches in their more natural state - "Sun soaked in bowls just in the shade".


The final verse of "Peaches" takes a bit of a surreal turn, as the singer recalls squishing a rotten peach in their fist and dreaming about a woman. The line "Nature's candy in my hand or can or a pie" once again emphasizes the simple pleasure of enjoying fresh, natural food.


Overall, "Peaches" can be seen as a lighthearted celebration of the joys of living in the country and enjoying the simple pleasures of life.
