I lost a nectarine in my car on the way home from the grocery store and couldn't find it anywhere. I was telling Rachel that I was afraid it would reveal itself by rolling under the gas pedal while I was driving. She laughed and said I was playing a little game of "Nectarine Roulette," and thus, this song was born!

lyrics
Nectarine Roulette
I live my life without regret
Standing in the Sun
Nec.ta.rine
It doesn’t matter who you are
It doesn't matter what you know
It doesn’t matter how you feel
Nec.ta.rine
Time it seems is ripening
My winning projections gambling fruitful connections
If my skin is firm will I bruise and burn or will
I be protected like the leather strong complexion of a
Nec.ta.rine
