    hi there, i'm an italian girl and i need some help to find the meaning of this kind of expressions:
    "if you don't want my peaches, please don't shake my tree" or
    "i really love your peaches, wanna shake your tree".
    i found them in various songs and i was wondering if they had a sexual meaning or else...

    thank you very much for your help....!
    kisses and rock'n'roll! :cheers2:

    Peaches like bum peaches?:confused:
    I honestly dont know
    People sing some crap in songs!

    At first I assumed the peaches were a bad thing, the trees defense mechaniasm, like peaches falling on your head when you shake the tree...so like "if you dont want a brutally honest answer (nasty peaches) then dont ask the question" (shake the tree) Or "If you dont want me to get angry (and drop peaches on you) then dont annoy me..."

    But peaches wouldnt be such a bad thing, even if the did hit you on the head. Peaches are yummy

    I think its bum peaches and theyre being RUDE:O
    :p

    I'm pretty sure peaches are a reference to breasts. I'd be surprised if they weren't. Like in the Stranglers song 'Walking on the beaches looking at the peaches'. Shake your tree is probably a sexual reference. I like the tune to The Joker, and the chorus is always good to sing along to, but it's not the most lyrically inspired piece ever written....
