She Talks To The Trees

	Did you dig up that dead duck
	To see if the earth had got to it yet?
	You buried it deep
	But heaven cannot keep
	All of those toys you leave behind
	Did you get your fingers in a mess
	Get dirt on your pretty party dress?
	Well, I’m sure you’ll still wear it with pride
	She comes here looking for me
	When she comes here, she talks to the trees
	She comes here looking for me
	When she comes here, she talks to the trees
	She thinks I think she cannot see me
	So she talks to the trees
	She comes here looking for me
	When she comes here, she talks to the trees
	You’re a cracked actor at nineteen
	You may never grace the silver screen
	So you curse the parts that you’ll never play
	And swear in all the lines that you’ll never say
	Do the old ones understand you?
	And does this drive you wild?
	Did they throw away their party cards
	While you were still a child?
	And did they tell you all the stories
	Of all the things you wish you’d done?
	She comes here looking for me
	When she comes here, she talks to the trees
	She comes here looking for me
	When she comes here, she talks to the trees
	She thinks i think she cannot see me
	So she talks to the trees
	She comes here looking for me
	When she gets here, she talks to the trees
