Bruce Cockburn - If a Tree Falls lyrics
[Bruce Cockburn - If a Tree Falls lyrics]
Rain forest mist and mystery
Teeming green green brain facing lobotomy
Climate control centre for the world
Ancient cord of coexistence
Hacked by parasitic greedhead scam
From Sarawak to Amazonas
Costa Rica to mangy BC hills
Cortege rhythm of falling timber
What kind of currency grows
In these new deserts
These brand new flood plains?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
Anybody hear the forest fall?
Cut and move on cut and move on
Take out trees take out wildlife at a rate
Of species every single day
Take out people who've lived with this
For a hundred thousand years
Inject a billion burgers worth of beef
Grain eaters methane dispensers
Through thinning ozone
Waves fall on wrinkled earth
Gravity, light, ancient refuse of stars
Speak of a drowning
But this, this is something other
Busy monster eats dark holes
In the spirit world
Where wild things have to go to disappear
Forever
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
Anybody hear the forest fall?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
Anybody hear the forest fall?
If a tree falls in the forest
If a tree falls in the forest
If a tree falls in the forest
Teeming green green brain facing lobotomy
Climate control centre for the world
Ancient cord of coexistence
Hacked by parasitic greedhead scam
From Sarawak to Amazonas
Costa Rica to mangy BC hills
Cortege rhythm of falling timber
What kind of currency grows
In these new deserts
These brand new flood plains?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
Anybody hear the forest fall?
Cut and move on cut and move on
Take out trees take out wildlife at a rate
Of species every single day
Take out people who've lived with this
For a hundred thousand years
Inject a billion burgers worth of beef
Grain eaters methane dispensers
Through thinning ozone
Waves fall on wrinkled earth
Gravity, light, ancient refuse of stars
Speak of a drowning
But this, this is something other
Busy monster eats dark holes
In the spirit world
Where wild things have to go to disappear
Forever
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
Anybody hear the forest fall?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
If a tree falls in the
Forest does anybody hear?
Anybody hear the forest fall?
If a tree falls in the forest
If a tree falls in the forest
If a tree falls in the forest
