about

This track was featured on the Holding Opposites compilation recorded and produced by Winston Goertz-Giffen

lyrics

Oh you little green eyed thing
You dressed up in leaves oh you all elbows and knees
Swinging from the bur oak tree
Get your hands out of your pockets, get to digging up those paper wings
Hoover high above the park
Til’ your ma’s as tiny as a flea

I am likened to branches
Bare the weight of wooden swings
An extension of a body wrought with rings
I’m bound to roots so ugly
I’ve been robbed of all my leaves
All the birds have turned their backs on me

Oh your doctor daddy
Tugging at the wheel again to pull over and sleep
He gifted you his disease
Found a driver in the alley, now he naps in the passenger seat
You set your alarm for 20
Twice a day and call it therapy

Chorus

Come quickly wrap yourself all around me
Whisper a farewell to this dying tree
Come quickly wrap yourself all around me
