Omnia - old man tree
i met a man who was a tree.
did i see him or he see me?
standing there majestically.
tree and me
the smell of sun on autumn leaves,
said take good care of all you see
praise the earth down on your knees,
that's what the old man sang to me
he sang:
(2x)
heya heya hey
life left you a broken boy man.
to fight the war an angry young man
now it's time to be a shaman,
take these wings and learn to fly man
i lost my grip and took a trip,
on a magic mushroom rocket ship
i rode the waves and didn't flip,
the rainbow-flavoured astral trip
ooh
hey
heya hey
and i sang:
heya heya heya heya heya heya hey hey hey heya heya hey
words they flowed like melody
through gnarly old man tree and me
from root to bone, from him to me,
just like the river to the sea
now i am he as tree is me,
but i'm not here and so is he
'cause in my mind i'm always free,
just like the tree that sang to me hey heya hey
the first shal never be the last,
there is no future and no past
put brother flame to sister grass
let's celebrade the pagan mass
heya heya heya heya heya heya hey hey hey heya heya hey
words they flowed like melody
through gnarly old man tree and me
from root to bone, from him to me,
just like the river to the sea
now i am he as tree is me,
but i'm not here and so is he
'cause in my mind i'm always free,
just like the tree that sang to me
(2x)
