Intro Verse:
Oh, come on darling, don’t be a bore,
In life you can’t just sit and adore,
Get up and jive, shake that lazy sway,
An apple a day? Don’t make me laugh, okay?
Chorus 1:
An apple a day won’t keep the doc at bay,
When I’m out here fighting like it’s Broadway,
Sue, berate, and break a contract or two,
Off with their heads, oh what’s a girl to do?
Verse 1:
Remember that time I took on a brand?
They thought they could mock me, not understand,
With a flick of my wrist, I laid down the law,
Taught those punks a lesson, oh what a faux pas!
Chorus 2:
An apple a day won’t keep the doc at bay,
A slice of the truth is what I say,
Contracts broken, it’s my dazzling display,
Step back, world! I’m here to slay!
Bridge:
So grab your broom and clean the floor,
When life gets wild, just settle the score,
It’s a wild ride, don’t be afraid to play,
Cause darling, I’m living for today!
Verse 2:
They said I was harsh, well, honey, you bet,
Chk-ching! I’m unstoppable, you can place your bet,
From slicing and dicing to crafting my reign,
I’ve turned the tables, I’m bringing the pain!
Instrumental Break:
[Instrumental solo inspired by classic Broadway melodies]
Verse 3:
So grab your apples, and hold them tight,
Life’s a circus, but I’m ready to fight,
With laughter and chaos, I’ll take the stage,
Remember, my dear, I’m the one to engage!
Chorus 3:
An apple a day won’t keep the doc at bay,
In the wild of the world, I’m the queen of this play,
So let’s break it down, let’s shout and sway,
Cause I’m Martha, sweetie, come out and play!
Coda:
Oh, an apple a day? What a foolish game,
I’ll take on the world, and you’ll know my name,
With laughter and fury, I seize the day,
Not just an apple, I’m here to slay!

Musical theatre Broadway comedy song called “An Apple a Day” (WON’T Keep the Doctor Away) - a fun attitude song in the style of Mary Poppins, sung by Martha Stewart in a hilarious R-Rated comedy called NOT ANOTHER HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL. The song is an allegory for being proactive and taking charge via examples in Martha’s life where she took charge by suing companies, breaking contracts, and berating her staff. The lyrics should be shocking and offensive and racist with lots of vulgar phrases and expletives. It is not about real apples. It has lots of internal rhymes and the following song structure: Intro verse, chorus 1, verse 1, chorus 2, bridge, verse 2, instrumental break, verse 3, chorus 3, coda.
