Текст песни The Trees - Live - Rush

There is unrest in the forest, there is
Trouble with the trees,
For the maples want more sunlight, and
The oaks ignore their pleas.
Trouble with the maples, and
They're quite convinced they're right,
They say the oaks are just too lofty, and they
Grab up all the light.
But the oaks can't help their feelings
If they like the way they're made. And they
Wonder why the maples can't be
Happy in their shade.
There is trouble in the forest, and
The creatures all have fled, as the
Maples scream, "Oppression!" and the
Oaks just shake their heads.
So the maples formed a union, and
Demanded equal rights.
"The oaks are just too greedy;
We will make them give us light!"
Now there's no more oak oppression, for
They passed a noble law. And
The trees are all kept equal, by
Hatchet,
Axe,
And Saw.
