Mosquito Fleet - Trees lyrics

rate me

on the storm came thru

Now I didn't know what to do

Without the luxury of electricity were doomed

Power lines that block the road

I could not get home to you

When I do I promise you

I'll tell you about the storm

The tree that stands the tallest

Is the most prone to fall down

And all it's tallest branches

Lying lonely on the ground

Here left in the dark

Without a light in this whole town

The tree that stands the tallest

Is the furthest from the ground

Honey, the wind it blew

Oh what are we gonna do

Without our property

Or paper of currency were doomed

Chicago skies are clear tonite

The anger gods release there wrath

On the wretched and the right

The tree that stands the tallest

Is the most prone to fall down

And all it's tallest branches

Lying lonely on the ground

Here left in the dark

Without a light in this whole town

The tree that stands the tallest

Is the furthest from the ground

The man that stand the tallest

In the most prone to fall down

And all his greatest honors

Lying useless on the ground

Now the crumbled man is

Walking taller than the crowd

He reaches out and lends a hand

To the man down on the ground
