Lemons in the front yard

Does it really happen?

The recipe calls for the zest of one lemon and I walk out--in my moccassins--to the tree in the front yard and pull one from the back where the dew hasn't evaporated.

I hear Modest Mouse in a discount clothing store while shoppers pick through purses following a familar Doobie Brothers tune. I can't imagine they had this in mind when they wrote the song, but then again, according to wikipedia the did, once upon a time, sell minivans with their music. Perhaps this is part of their master plan.
