I once had a tree
or should I say the tree once had me
It showed me its depth
Isn’t it good
Canadian wood
...
It asked me to stay
and it told me to lie anywhere
So I looked around
and I noticed there wasn’t a bed
...
I slept on a branch
biding its time
writing a rhyme
We talked until night and then it said
“Time for your head”
...
It told me it worked
all day long and started to shake
I told it I didn’t
and crawled off to sleep in its shade
...
And when I awoke I was alone
This tree had been wronged
So I wrote down its life
Isn’t it good
Canadian wood
