Where the sun beats down there's an ocean breeze Where the lilies and the lands kiss the blue-green sea Past the one old mill where old Lazarus be That's where you'll find the old evergreen tree Where it stands by the clouds, oh so high and mighty Father says if it were human it would be our king But it isn't, so quit your worrying and sing As we dance around the fire by the evergreen tree La-de-di-da La-da-de-da La-dе-di-da La-da-de-da Well therе came a day a woodpecker saw He said "This tree be too tall for I can scarce see!" Began peck-a-pecking wood with his tiny beak But he only put a dent in the evergreen tree So that bird got his crew as his little army All his friends asked "What's wrong with this big old thing?" He said to them "Oh it's not to my liking" So all they went destroying the evergreen tree La-de-di-da La-da-de-da La-de-di-da La-da-de-da With a couple years work their project was complete They all backed away as they watched it lean And it fell down the hill, crashed into the sea All those birds cheered "Goodbye, oh evergreen tree!" That woodpecker soon realized what's one thing Asked around, "Oh have ye seen my family?" All the birds questioned what this poor fellow could mean They said "You mean the ones that lived in the evergreen tree?" Let this be a lesson to all of ye Don't waste all your precious time worrying About things that are small in the big grand scheme Or you'll be like the bird 'n the evergreen tree La-de-di-da La-da-de-da La-de-di-da La-da-de-da La-de-di-da La-da-de-da (Hey!)
