Chop the Tree Lyrics by The Teeth (Philadelphia)

Carry the Wood

2005

[Verse 1]
I, I want to chop the tree
Carry the wood and burn the leaves
And when the job is done
Well then this old boy will have had his fun
[Chorus]
Hello, hello hollow tree
I've come to read your eulogy
[Verse 2]
And I want, I want to plant and sow
And make my garden grow
And if my garden dies
Well then this old boy will have feared no flies
[Chorus]
So long, so long sleepy bear
I’ve turned your bed into a chair
[Bridge]
And the last I saw, she was at the station
Boarding three bags for only a week's vacation
If I see her again, it will be the end
Oh, oh
