For All the Trees

Don't know where we're heading but I don't mind

Doesn't look pretty but we're guessing blind

And I, I just don't have the time

Picking up speed like a category five

We'ee seeing more now the tides are high

And I, I just don't have the time

Well the chamber's barking orders

And arguing over borders

Worst of all I don't know what to have for tea

They told me to stock the pantry

As long as it ain't too fancy

And I can't see the wood for all the trees

They told me I'm grounded, I can't see my friends

They live across the water that we now defend

And you, you still cross those lines

Well the hanging basket's watered

And the Persian kids are slaughtered

The duck house is over a grand but it came for free

They told me to stock the pantry

As long as it ain't too fancy

And I can't see the wood for all the trees

Oh and just when you think you've seen it all

They throw a few more fireballs

Just like one of those films that we used to see

Well the pocket lining's thicker

And the oil dance just gets slicker

Oh and I can't see the wood for all the trees
