The Singing Tree |
There are a million roots |
Of the singing tree |
And it has a million branches and each branch a million leaves |
Rain falls in the river |
River falls in the sea |
The sea falls upside down into the singing tree |
The singing tree is hidden |
The singing tree is dark |
The singing tree has castles hidden in its bark |
The castle’s have no kings the castles have no queens |
The people are all words there |
Sung by the singing tree |
Today I got a phonecall on my answering machine |
It said «hello is Jeff there? |
This is the singing tree |
You might be surprised I’m calling |
You might be surprised I have a phone |
But no one wants to be a pole |
And I’m lonely like a tree now |
And I don’t wanna fall in the woods |
I wanna find a honeybee now |
Take me all around the world |
I wanna stop barking up the wrong tree |
I wanna turn over a new leaf |
I wanna go back to the country |
I wanna find the singing tree |
