There is mass confusion in the forest I heard about it on the radio
and they're bringin' in some guy and he's gonna go on and on
about all the things that he don't know
and there's some girl in the background she's screaming something
about missing trees and I'm wondering, 
where did they go?

no lines on the highway no passing they say
no green to my left and no green to my right
and the man behind the axe always gets a full meal
cause green never puts up much of a fight

so here's some helpful hints some breath assured pins
full of beautiful grace and we steal their space
and death comes quickly so I pull up to my 
double car garage hideaways and I start to say

where did all the trees go? (doesn't anyone know?)
where did all the trees go? (they went across the street to grow)
where did all the lights come from? they said you're big before you're small
I'm sure glad I don't know it all
yes I'm glad I don't know it all

if the trees could be lions would they still fall and be tagged
would they refuse to surrender refuse to be gagged
if the trees had a mother and a father like mine
would they stand up say praise the trees the trees will be fine
so wake me up from this dream, tell me things aren't as bad as they seem
and tell me is it so not cool to say who will save the trees will it be me?

where did all the trees go? (doesn't anyone know?) yeah
where did all the trees go? (they went across the street to grow)  yeah
where did all the lights come from? they said you're big before you're small
I'm sure glad I don't konw it all

where did all my trees go? (doesn't anyone know?) yeah
where did all the trees go? (they went across the street to grow)  yeah
where did all the lights come from? they say you're big before you're small
I'm sure glad I don't know it all
yes I'm glad I don't know it all

and there's mass confusion in the forest
I heard all about it on the radio
and they're bringin' in some guy and he's gonna go on and on and on
about all the things that he don't know
and there's some girl in the background and she's screaming something
about missing trees and I'm wondering, 
where did they go?

where did they go?
where did they go?
