Look at the tree that stays.
Know one cut's it down.
That's what people say.
With so much sound who cares.
Know one supports the tree except me.
The tree will stay
And it will always stay.

It is very big, with leaves and flowers.
It's perfect for everything.
It has a squirrel s home.
So in the winter when nut's fall.
The squirrel without a squeak
Can pick it up and eat.

The gate is the tree's guard.
Or is it, the squirrel.
Is the squirrel there to protect it?
The monster that unleashes nut fire.
To people who want to cut it.
But, they're too afraid.
No wonder the tree stays.
