If A Tree Falls Lyrics - Slice O Life: Bruce Cockburn Live Solo - Bruce Cockburn

Rain forest 

Mist and mystery 

Teeming green 

Green brain facing labotomy 

Climate control centre for the world 

Ancient cord of coexistence 

Hacked by parasitic greedhead scam 

From Sarawak to Amazonas 

Costa Rica to mangy B.C. hills 

Cortege rhythm of falling timber. 

What kind of currency grows in these new deserts, 

These brand new flood plains? 

If a tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? 

If a tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? 

Anybody hear the forest fall?

Cut and move on 

Cut and move on 

Take out trees 

Take out wildlife at a rate of species every single day 

Take out people who've lived with this for 100,000 years 

Inject a billion burgers worth of beef 

Grain eaters, methane dispensers. 

Through thinning ozone, 

Waves fall on wrinkled earth 

Gravity, light, ancient refuse of stars, 

Speak of a drowning 

But this, this is something other. 

Busy monster eats dark holes in the spirit world 

Where wild things have to go 

To disappear 

Forever

If a tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? 

If a tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? 

Anybody hear the forest fall? 

If a tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? 

If a tree falls in the forest does anybody hear? 

Anybody hear the forest fall? 

(If a tree falls in the forest) 

(If a tree falls in the forest)
