Eve and Adam had a garden everything was great
Till one day a boy says pardon Miss my name is snake
See that apple over yonder if you'll take a bite
You and Adam both are bound to have some fun tonight
Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
Go ahead and taste it you don't wanna waste it
The Lord had said in the beginning everything is free
Except that apple that leads to sinning so let that apple be
But Eve got tempted so she tried it and as all chicks do
Teaser her man till he decided he'd just try some too
Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
Go ahead and bite it I bet you'd be delighted
I hate to tell you all what followed the Lord was most upset
Saw them making love and hollered what have you to add
And when they made a full confession the Lord said hm I see
I guess I'll have to teach you a lesson about not minding me
Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
You're all indebted now you gonna get it
The Lord made Eve Adam's madam have his kids and all
Placed some labour laws on Adam and he made the snake to fall
Ever since the days of Eden folks been sinful my
Nowadays they're even eating apples in their pie
Go on and eat forbidden fruit
It's mighty sweet forbidden fruit
It's quite a treat forbidden fruit
Go ahead and taste it you don't wanna waste it
Oh go ahead and bite it I bet you'd be delighted
You always did it now you'll gonna get it
Forbidden fruit

Nina Simone, pseudonimo di Eunice Kathleen Waymon (1933-2003), è stata una leggendaria cantautrice, pianista e attivista americana. Nata in Carolina del Nord da una famiglia afroamericana profondamente religiosa, dimostrò precocemente un talento musicale straordinario. Dopo aver studiato musica classica al Conservatorio di Filadelfia, Simone si dedicò alla musica jazz e blues, diventando rapidamente una figura iconica della scena musicale degli anni '60. La sua voce potente e versatile, accompagnata da un'interpretazione appassionata del pianoforte, le permisero di affrontare temi sociali e politici con coraggio e sensibilità. Simone fu una fervente sostenitrice dei diritti civili, usando la sua musica come strumento di protesta contro il razzismo e l'ingiustizia sociale. Canzoni come «Mississippi Goddam» e «Four Women» divennero inni di lotta per la giustizia sociale. La sua influenza musicale è stata profonda e duratura, ispirando generazioni di artisti in diverse discipline. Tra i suoi album più importanti ricordiamo *I Put a Spell on You* (1965) e *Wild Is the Wind* (1966).
