about

When I die I want my ashes to be used to help plant a tree

lyrics

I wish I was tree
As tall as I could be
So I could sit and see
All of the things the birds all see
I wish I was a bird
So I could know no words
And I could fly away
When life got too absurd

I wish I was a tree
I wouldn't need money
And I would feel so fine
Cause in the wintertime
I'd close my weary eyes
And wake to the surprise
That springtime had arrived
And just a few months till summertime

(and the flowers will be lovely)

I wish I was a tree
So I could live to be
250
983
And I could sit and think
Of all the little things
And listen to all of the sweet birds
As they'd softly sing

(the birds whistle their sweet song)

I wish I was a tree
So I could live to see
The year 3003
And be born in 2020
I wish I was a bird
I may not know no words
But I could whistle to the deep blue when this life got too absurd

(A chorus of birds and people whistle and sing to the absurdity of their existence)
