Shonen Knife Little Tree Lyrics

There's a little tree in my yard
It was a very, very hot summer
A great big green caterpillar
Was eating the leaves of the tree

There's a little tree in my yard
It was a very, very hot summer
A great big green caterpillar
Was eating the leaves of the tree

Oh, my dear the little tree
I want to help the little tree
Oh, my poor little tree
If I don't help it will be bare

My, my, my little tree
My, my, my little tree

There are many trees in the forest
It was a very, very hot summer
A big bulldozing caterpillar
Was pushing down all the trees

There are many trees in the forest
It was a very, very hot summer A big bulldozing caterpillar
Was pushing down all the trees

Oh, my dear the little trees
We've gotta help the little trees
Oh, my poor little trees
If we don't help the earth will be bare

My, my, my little tree
My, my, my little tree

A few months have passed
It was a refreshing autumn
I came down to my yard
The tree was flowering

Oh, my sweet little tree
Beautiful white flowers
Oh, my sweet little tree
Someday you'll be a big tree

My, my, my little tree
My, my, my little tree
My, my, my little tree

My, my, my little tree
My, my, my little tree
My, my, my little tree
