Oh, how I love to climb up in a tree
Up in the air so blue
I do think it the pleasantest thing
Ever a guy could do
Scaling the trunk and sawing the branch
Till I can see all 'round
Hoping I'm belted and harnessed all right
So they'll catch me if I fall down!
Till I get back to the Earth again
Back where the chipper chips
The homeowners cheer when I'm in the clear
Don't they know, I never slip?!
(With apologies to Robert Louis Stevenson.)
