Everything that's made of wood was once a tree
It was made to be understood by fools like me
Now you're sitting on a chair, and you're sitting nice and cozy there
But you're really not sitting on a chair, you're sitting on a tree
Somebody yelled timber
Yes and then she came tumbling down
Whether it's a door or a chair or a floor
The roots are still in the ground
Everything that's made of wood was once a tree
And all that is sticks of branches in your house that you may see
Now you've got that gorgeous tv set, sitting in that lovely cabinet
But it ain't sitting in a cabinet, it's sitting in a tree
Somebody yelled timber
Yes and then she came tumbling down
Whether it's a door or a chair or a floor
The roots are still in the ground
Everything that's made of wood was once a tree
And don't you get the wrong idea, ain't nothing free
You got collectors by the score, they even knocking on your door
But they're not really knocking on your door, they're knocking on a tree
Somebody yelled timber
And then she came tumbling down
Whether it's a door or a chair or a floor
The roots are still in the ground
Everything that's made of wood was once a tree
And it was made to be understood by a fool like me
Now when you're dead ...... and when you're buried six feet deep
You're really not buried in a coffin, you're buried in a tree
Somebody yelled timber
Yes and then she came tumbling down
Whether it's a door or a chair or a floor
The roots are still in the ground
And don't start bringing me down
Everything that's made of wood was once a tree
