The Tree of Knowledge
I found the Tree of Knowledge In the middle of a wood In the middle of winter It was bearing golden fruit
Apples on the topmost branches Outlined against the sky It would take all of my climbing skills To climb that high
The need to know burns me up Answers to my questions More urgent than the will to live Curiosity beckons
So I climb and climb and climb and climb Legs and arms a-quiver The higher I climb, the further the top Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com This tree stretches on forever
Finally I reach the top Up in the crow's nest, far from land The whole earth spread beneath me Gleaming apple in my hand
My teeth are itching for a bite The great temptation And in the shiny glowing skin I see my own reflection
The first bite makes me laugh The second makes me cry The final bite fills me up And back down to earth I fly
