Teachers and preachers all reaching for the sky
In love with a day while others stop and ask why
leave me be, say the tree

I am a tree, birds and bees make the difference to me
Brothers and sisters join hearts and thoughts and souls
push dangers of night into the days of old
Leave me be, say the tree

Chop, chop, chop till I take this tree down
chop, chop, chop till there's nothin' around
Little girl says after A,B,C's
I'll grow up plant a thousand trees.

(SOLO)

I am a tree, up here is different to see
Brothers and sisters and teachers and preachers
All sitting in the shade of what will come to be
Leave me be, say the tree...say the tree
