Yvonne Lyon Monkey Puzzle Tree Lyrics

meet me under the monkey puzzle tree
we can go and save the world and still be back in time for tea
where we go is of no consiquence for the day is as long as we want it to be

when things get crazy we can build a den
from these recycled blankets and other broken bits and pieces then
we'll make a pact that no one else can hear with our secrets sworn to never tell a soul again

chorus:
And there were daisy chains and polystyrene planes
Never noticing the blood running through our veins
blood that ties us and remains ties that can never be broken we'll find a way to waste an hour or three
and then when we get home we'll work out how to get around the third degree
Our story grows as we exaggerate to the tallest tales of the wild and the fre
(chorus)
time goes by so slowly when we are young (x4)
(chorus)
So meet me under the monkey puzzle tree
we can go and save the world and still be back in time for tea
where we go is of no consequence for the day is as long as we want it to be
the day is as long as we want it to be yeah
the day is as long as you want it to be
