We're Gonna Live in the Trees

Robyn Hitchcock · Spooked [2004]

Guess what? I've spoken to Norm

We're gonna live in the trees

Dirty air will be transformed

We're gonna live in the trees

We're gonna live in the trees



I'll bring you fat juicy worms

I'll bring you millipedes

Open your beak and close your eyes

We're gonna live in the trees

We're gonna live in the trees



Norm tells me you're ready to fly

We're gonna live in the trees

You're that much closer to the sky

We're gonna live in the trees

We're gonna live in the trees



You either take off or you don't

You can't fly by degrees

But fly an inch and you fly miles

We're gonna live in the trees

We're gonna live in the trees

We're gonna live in the trees



Now thanks to Norm there's a nest up there

We're gonna live in the trees

We're there in air and air to spare

We're gonna live in the trees

We're gonna live in the trees



Virginia Woolf had a troubled mind

She was never at ease

But you're my children; you'll be fine

We're gonna live in the trees

We're gonna live in the trees

We're gonna live in the trees

We're gonna live in the trees



Guess what? I've spoken to Norm

We're gonna live in the trees...
