A little tree
In a brook
Surrounded by those taller, smarter, stronger than thee
You'll grow, you'll see.
You'll be as tall as me.
You'll be as strong as me.
Oh, little tree, you're just like me.
They tell you you'll grow, but they steal
The water, the nutrients, the sun, out from under you
Oh, little tree, at the mercy,
Of nature, human greed, and necessity
Oh, little tree, you're just like me.
