Family Tree lyrics

There is always someplace safer than the playground
So let`s walk to our private beach at night
We could always roll these drums down the sand dunes
Into the surf and continue to think that they`re safe, sealed up tight,
up tight

CHORUS
I`ll be gone before the things that I do now go wrong
Family tree is burning to heat my house a little longer

Bobbing up and down in the waves with the moonbeams
They shine like turtles` backs in bleach and I
I hope that they`ll be sinking soon under the seaweed
`Cause inside the atoms are moving and helping the fish grow extra eyes

CHORUS

Now that all the poison`s taken off our red hands
It`s percolating in the deep blue dump
We`ll be counting pay cheques, with all the zeros
Mother of nature has gone to the doc for a test, she`s found a lump

CHORUS

We`ll move to the planets where we don`t belong
Family tree is buring the rocket`s waining on the lawn
The rocket`s waiting on the lawn
