lyrics

High in the branches of the Caterpillar tree
Safe, nicely nestled in my fuzzy canopy
The stability; relativity
A good civility holds me tight like a bug
Yeah I’m all right now

Its leaves, they look like handouts on the bark’s contingency
A fruitful beard of moss decides which way it plants its seeds
A good totality for the morality
Of what’s to come for me, when the vines hang too low
Yeah I’m all right for now
Yeah I’ll be all right, mama

Why do birds fly through and dabble with the wizardry that is my caterpillar tree?
When won’t birds infringe and crash the fun so subsequently in my caterpillar tree?

Its roots are getting brittle from this bout of poverty
An ancient adage proving its impoverished pedigree
Adaptability? This debt is killing me
Surefire sterility sheds the warmth of the sun
Am I all right now?
Am I all right, mama?

Why do birds fly through and dabble with the wizardry that is my caterpillar tree?
Why are birds obsessed with pecking the life out of me in my caterpillar tree?
When I’m dead, will birds stop chirping for what’s left of me and leave it for the caterpillar tree?
