If A Tree Falls / Mr. Earth Day

by Sons of Butcher

/
1.
Rain forest Mist and mystery Teeming green Green brain facing labotomy Climate control centre for the world Ancient cord of coexistence Hacked by parasitic greedhead scam - From Sarawak to Amazonas Costa Rica to mangy B.C. hills - Cortege rhythm of falling timber. What kind of currency grows in these new deserts, These brand new flood plains? If a fucking tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? If a fucking tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? Anybody hear the forest fall? Cut and move on Cut and move on Take out trees Take out wildlife at a rate of species every single day Take out people who've lived with this for 100, 000 years - Inject a billion burgers worth of beef - Grain eaters - methane dispensers. Fuckin' cows, man. Through thinning ozone, Waves fall on wrinkled earth - Gravity, light, ancient refuse of stars, Speak of a drowning - But this, this is something other. Busy monster eats dark holes in the spirit world Where wild things have to go To disappear Forever If a fucking tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? If a fucking tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? Anybody hear the forest fall?

Hey all you people dumping shit on the ground You better get smart cause a new sheriff's in town He's fighting for the truth so you better relent He's wearing tights, a mask and a cape made of hemp Chorus Mr. Earth Day and he always recycles Mr. Earth Day he rides a unicycle Mr. Earth Day he's got some loyal disciples He's keeping the planet clean He sets out on his mission while the city sleeps At dusk he rises up from his compost heap Fantastic, bombastic and a little gymnastic Right after he sorts his paper from plastic Chorus Mr. Earth Day and he always recycles Mr. Earth Day he rides a unicycle Mr. Earth Day for the earth's survival He's keeping the planet clean Bridge He never came across a plant-based food that he didn't like Zero emissions are his mission a carbon footprint and he's ready to strike He drifts through your house at lightning speed. Changing your light bulbs to LEDs Adds low flow shower heads for a personal touch And would sooner pee in the bath than waste a flush Chorus Mr. Earth Day and he always recycles Mr. Earth Day he rides a unicycle Mr. Earth Day and his name is Michael, He's keeping the planet clean

Track one comes from Hamilton, Ontario's comedy rock band Sons of Butcher. In this version of Bruce Cockburn's classic track track "If A Tree Falls", Sol Butcher takes the lead on vocals as he laments deforestation and it's environmental impact, while guitarist Ricky Butcher and bassist Doug Borski amp up the rock factor. Afterall, Sol love Earth!
