The Lyrics
Vine men say, only fools rush up,
but I can’t help falling out of a yew.
So today
I am in my cups,
drunk, I can’t help falling out of a yew.
Up there in the boughs
of this so tall tree
far above the cows,
but it’s so slippery
Make a stand on the pitchy goo
I couldn’t. Help! Falling out of a yew.
Down there with the cows
is where I’ll soon be
abraded by boughs,
grated like Havarti.
Aches! I land, and I’m bitching, “Ooo!”
I couldn’t help, falling out of a yew.
I need some help. . .calling the ICU.
but I can’t help falling out of a yew.
So today
I am in my cups,
drunk, I can’t help falling out of a yew.
Up there in the boughs
of this so tall tree
far above the cows,
but it’s so slippery
Make a stand on the pitchy goo
I couldn’t. Help! Falling out of a yew.
Down there with the cows
is where I’ll soon be
abraded by boughs,
grated like Havarti.
Aches! I land, and I’m bitching, “Ooo!”
I couldn’t help, falling out of a yew.
I need some help. . .calling the ICU.
