little tree from Snark by King Dooker

so we go and find a little tree
in the field beside what used to be
we pick the best around that we can see
and we saw it down
it's carried home we stand it on the floor
not far away from where it was before
we decorate it light it up some more
and then we watch it die

die, die, little tree
die away now here in front of me
and never have a chance, or get to grow
just be a fancy place where the presents go
die, die, little tree
die away there right in front of me
just like the way you did the year before
and the way that you will forevermore

where we go to find a little tree
there are stumps around so watch ur feet
the brush pile is where they used to be
until we burned them down
we celebrate it toast is with a song
it's desiccating while we sing along
eliminated when it's been too long
while i wonder why

die, die, little tree
die away now here in front of me
ur turning brown from green, ur needles fall
a suffering unseen while in front of all
die, die, little tree
die away there right in front of me
just like the way you did the year before
and the way that you will for evermore
die, die, little tree
die, die, little tree
die, die, little tree
die, die...
