Eucalyptus Lyrics

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
