THAT BEAUTIFUL TREE

performed by Heather Bishop and Don Benedictson

 

 

"Hey!  Wow!  This must be Central Park.  It's really quite beautiful.  Look.  There's birds singing.  The sky is blue.  And there's a real tree."

 

A tree is just a tree to you and me

But if you were a blue jay, that's not all you'd see

You'd look upon the leaves from way up in the air

And know your nest and family is waiting for you there

 

Inside that tree

That beautiful tree

That tree

 

A tree is just a tree to you and me

But if you were a squirrel, that's not all you'd see

You'd gather all the acorns in a hole inside that tree

And when the winter's hunger came you'd be glad to see

 

That tree

That beautiful tree

That tree

 

A tree is just a tree to you and me

But if you were a caterpillar, that's not all you'd see

You'd make your small cocoon in a leaf to keep you dry

And in a week or so you'd come out a butterfly

 

From that tree

That beautiful tree

That tree

 

A tree is just a tree to you and me

But if it was a summer day that's not all you'd see

You'd be dry and you'd be thirsty and needing lemonade

And plop yourself down by the roots and bask there in the shade

 

Of that tree

That beautiful tree

That tree

That beautiful tree

That tree

 

"Oh no!  Aaaahh!  Oh yeah, I forgot.  Ducks don't land in trees..."
