Artist/Band: Pulp
Lyrics for Song: The Trees
Lyrics for Album: We Love Life [2001]



I took an air rifle

Shot a magpie to the ground

And it died without a sound



Your skin's so pale

Against the fallen autumn leaves

No-one saw us but the trees



Yeah, the trees

Those useless trees

Produce the air

That I am breathing



Yeah, the trees

Those useless trees

They never said

That you were leaving



I carved your name

With a heart just up above

Now swollen, distorted

Unrecognisable, like our love



You smell of leaf mould

And the sweetness of decay

Or the incense at the funeral procession here today



And the trees

Those useless trees

Produce the air

That I am breathing



Yeah, the trees

Those useless trees

They never said

That you were leaving



Ah



Try to shape the world to what you want the world to be

Carving your name a thousand times won't bring you back to me



Oh, no, I might as well

I might as well go tell it to the trees, yeah



Oh yeah, the trees

Those useless trees

Produce the air

That I am breathing



Yeah, the trees

Those useless trees

They never said

That you were leaving



Go and tell it to the trees, yeah

Go tell it to the trees, yeah

Go tell it to the trees, yeah

Go tell it to the trees, yeah

Go tell it to the trees, yeah
