LYRICS
What is this re-birth
You keep hoping for
You want to make Earth
Great again? Please begin
Great again…
After the planet you sin
Can no longer endure
Are you sure? Absolutely sure
AbSOULutely
What if the only thing she can do
Is purge you?

LYRICS
Eyes gaze in a daze
Eyes glazed in a haze
Can either ear hear
Are you deaf, my Dear?

Chorus
Can you see me signaling
This is the ending
Can you hear me screaming
“Dreaming of you listening”

Eyes stare… unaware
Is anyone in there
Do you think it’s cute
Playing like a mute

Chorus

Eyes open yet blind
Blind-eye turned… not kind
I fear you can hear
Your contempt is clear

Chorus

LYRICS
Eighty-one degrees
When you’re sitting under the trees
Not even a hint of a cool, cool breeze

Thawing the perma-freeze
Deforestation, our own worst enemy
The human blight on serenity

How long will we go on
Until we stop, stop, stop?
How long will go on
Until we drop, drop, drop?

ABOUT THE SONG
Chords — Capo 3
Em Am C G

This song is about global warming and a hot, humid day in early May. When my kids were very young, we considered buying a vacation house in Florida. I warned them that climate change would turn Pennsylvania into a Florida house by the time they had grandchildren. I was wrong. Today, Pennsylvania is turning tropical in May.

LYRICS
Did that tree just try to kill me?

Many dead… mostly from trees.

Geeze.. giving them diseasecreatin a deadly breeze.

Using limb to clobber him from limb to limb
Crushing homes and transportation
Because of our past deviation violation

The fall of the trees
Due to the human disease
The revenge of the woods
Due to too many would-of’s, could-of’s and shoulds
Due to too many wood-of shoulds

A Tree Suffering From Ozone Poisoning
A Tree Suffering From Ozone Poisoning

LYRICS
If you can see the sky
Ask: why?

Turn from green to brown
Fall down
Like a cannonball sailed through
Deny it… will you?

Simple reasoning
Points to ozone poisoning

When the conditions are right with sunlight
Volatile ozone ignites
Blasting right through a tree
Blasting right through you and me

Now it’s been sung
Imagine your lung
Without a tree
Where will our oxygen be?

LYRICS
Where would we be without the hives and the trees?
Where would we be without the birds and the bees?
What would you do without the innocence of children?
What would you do without the memory of been?

Do you think you’d miss a cool rain’s kiss?
Would you be remiss… speechless?

ABOUT THE SONG
Capo 5
A (less C#, add A, add F#)
A / D

Written and recorded on July 24, 2012 at Marsh Creek State Park, Chester County, Pennsylvania. For quite sometime, I have been conducting a study on deforestation of the Earth. While writing the song, I noticed the sun shining through the leaves of the tree… like is was winter time; however, it is summer. Then, a couple of small children walked up to me and said, “Thank you guitar man.” What would the world be like without trees? What would the world be like without the innocence of children?
