Eucalyptus

I'll plant a row Of eucalyptus And they will grow Up to protect us They'll block the rain, oh With their salty leaves They'll keep the wind oh From our short short sleeves Well if he comes And tries to find us We'll just grab hold Branches above us And we'll sit up here We will wait a year We'll come back, oh We'll come back when the coast is clear Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no It's a row, (a row), a row A row of stumps surrounding us It's bright and cold and lonesome We must have cut them down in our sleep In our sleep we must have cut down all the trees Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no And now the wind, it hits our sleeves It's freezing we got colder Older, we got older Without those trunks surrounding us I can see for miles tonight And I think I see a distant light And I need to find out what those are Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Sorry about the stumps Sorry about the stumps Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye You're sitting here on bloody knees Where once were eucalyptus trees Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye See you in the night Goodbye Goodbye Goodbye See you in the night Oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no
