The Trees

Artist：rush

Songs Title：the trees

There is unrest in the forest

There is trouble with the trees

For the maples want more sunligh

And the oaks ignore their pleas

The trouble with the maples

（and theyre quite convinced theyre right）

They say the oaks are just too lofty

And they grab up all the light

But the oaks cant help their feelings

If they like the way theyre made

And they wonder why the maples

Cant be happy in their shade?

There is trouble in the forest

And the creatures all have fled

As the maples scream 'oppression!'

And the oaks, just shake headstheir

So the maples formed a union

And demanded equal rights

the oaks are just too greedy

We will make them give us light

Now theres no more oak oppression

For they passed a noble law

And the trees are all kept equal

By hatchet,

Axe,

And saw ...
