friends family the things that keep me alive
I'd rather be lonely, I'd rather be free I'm as sure as the moon rolls around the sea But I like watching you undress And I think we're at our best By the flicker by the light of the TV setCause I can't remember why I hated you Can't remember why I still do But I'm as sure as the moon rolls around you That I could be happy, happy Oh, so happy, happy Oh, so happy, so happyThey warn you about killers and thieves in night I worry about cancer and living right But my mama never warned me about my own Destructive appetiteOr the pitfalls of control How it locks you in your grave Looking for someone to be saved under my restraint So I could be happy, happy Oh so happy, happy Oh so happy, happy So happy, so happy
"The Trees"There is unrest in the forest There is trouble with the trees For the maples want more sunlight And the oaks ignore their pleasThe trouble with the maples (And they're quite convinced they're right) They say the oaks are just too lofty And they grab up all the light But the oaks can't help their feelings If they like the way they're made And they wonder why the maples Can't be happy in their shadeThere is trouble in the forest And the creatures all have fled As the maples scream 'Oppression!' And the oaks just shake their headsSo the maples formed a union And demanded equal rights 'The oaks are just too greedy We will make them give us light' Now there's no more oak oppression For they passed a noble law And the trees are all kept equal By hatchet, axe and saw
