[Intro]
Froo-oo-oo-oot
La-la-la-la-la-la
Ju-u-u-uice
La-la-la-la-la-la

[Verse 1]
I've seen seasons come and go
From winter sun to summer snow
This ain't my first time at the rodeo

[Verse 2]
Nature ain't a fruit machine
She's gotta keep her credits clean
Good things come to those who wait
But I ain't in a patient phase

[Interlude 1]
It's summer time and I hang on the vine
They're gonna make me into sweet red wine
Hanging around like a fruit on a tree
Waiting to be picked, come on cut me free

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Come on fill your cup up
Looking for some good luck
Good luck, good luck to you
Hanging like a fruit
Ready to be juiced
Juiced, juiced

[Chorus]
Living la dolce vita
Life couldn't get much sweeter
Don't you give me a reason
That it's not the right season
Babe, I love you a lot
I'll give you all I've got
Yeah, you know that it's true
I've been saving all my summers for you
I've been saving all my summers for you
Like froot, like froot

[Verse 3]
Baby, I am plump and ripe
I'm pinker than shepherd's delight
Sweet like honeysuckle late at night

[Verse 4]
Leave it too long I'll go rot
Like an apple you forgot
Birds and worms will come for me
The cycle of life is complete

[Interlude 2]
I'm your carnal flower, I'm your bloody rose
Pick my petals off and make my heart explode
I'm your deadly nightshade, I'm your cherry tree
You're my one true love, I'm your destiny

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Come on fill your cup up
Looking for some good luck
Good luck, good luck to you
Autumn, I'll be gone
Birds will sing their mourning song
Song

[Chorus]
Living la dolce vita
Life couldn't get much sweeter
Don't you give me a reason
That it's not the right season
Babe, I love you a lot
I'll give you all I've got
Yeah, you know that it's true
I've been saving all my summers for you
I've been saving all my summers for you
Like froot, like froot

[Bridge]
Oh my body is ready
Yeah it's ready, yeah it's ready for your love
Oh my branches are heavy
Yeah they're heavy, yeah they're heavy

[Chorus]
Living la dolce vita
Life couldn't get much sweeter
Don't you give me a reason
That it's not the right season
Babe, I love you a lot
I'll give you all I've got
Yeah, you know that it's true
I've been saving all my summers for you
I've been saving all my summers for you
Like froot, like froot

[Outro]
Living la dolce vita
I'm in love
Living la dolce vita
I'm in love
I'm in love

Marina Lambrini Diamandis, better known as MARINA (formerly Marina and the Diamonds), is a Welsh singer-songwriter and musician.

Growing up in Wales, England and Greece, Marina became “obsessed with becoming a singer, almost as if it was a disease.” After moving to London, it took four years before she established herself as a singer-songwriter. After several independently-released EPs, she placed second on the BBC Sound of 2010 list. In 2010, her debut album, The Family Jewels, was released to critical acclaim and chart success, eventually being certified Gold in the UK.

Her 2012 sophomore album, Electra Heart, was a concept album in which she embraced the titular persona—a vapid, blonde “straight-up pop star” who arose out of her label’s demands for a more commercial pop sound and Marina’s desire to maintain artistic integrity. It became her most successful album, debuting atop the UK, Scotland and Ireland album charts.
