You must be so embarrassed You're not a tree Not a single leaf could fall from you Yet you stand proudly in the forest How silly you must seem To all the real trees As you stand there and plee "I'M A TREE! I AM A TREE!" Then where are your roots? Because you're running Then where is your shade? If you have any. You must be so embarrassed You're not a tree. You're a lamppost. Someone else gives you life. While a tree produces its own.

I AM A TREE
You must be so embarrassed You're not a tree Not a single leaf could fall from you Yet you stand proudly in the forest How silly you must seem To all the real trees As you stand there and plee "I'M A TREE! I AM A TREE!" Then where are your roots? Because you're running Then where is your shade? If you have any. You must be so embarrassed You're not a tree. You're a lamppost. Someone else gives you life. While a tree produces its own.
