Verse
Bored standing around, his gaze began to wander.
Looking through the window,
A sight made him ponder.
He saw a tree like him, but enormous in size.
What on earth was this for?
What a funny surprise!
Standing outside all day in the wind, rain and snow,
Animals caused havoc.
While ugly mushrooms grow.
What a stressful existence, this giant must live,
His branches firewood.
What else is there  to give?
The little tree cleared his needles, straightened his stems,
Then proudly he spoke up,
Sharing wisdom and gems.
I am here now to help you, and offer good cheer.
Weather-beaten and bruised,
Your suffering is clear.

Chorus
Oh, look at me! Oh, can't you see?
I'm living like a Christmas tree!
With golden lights and sparkling cheer,
I've got a home forever here!
You're out in storms, I'm warm inside,
With all my treasures on display!
Oh, don't you wish you lived like me?
I wouldn't have it any other way!

Verse
The animals took over and the mushrooms thrive.
How did this get so bad?
How'd you even survive?
The old tree heard a murmur from inside the house.
He listened silently,
Could even hear a mouse.
The big tree greets with joy, as many times before.
Little trees just like him,
Come and go through that door.
Quite certain he was wrong, the little tree defends,
His very special role,
And his newly made friends!
This home is forever, my family loves me.
I will not leave my spot,
Old chap, just wait and see.
Maybe those mushrooms are now messing with his head.
He says with harmony,
They help his soil instead!

Chorus

Oh, look at me! Oh, can't you see?
I'm living like a Christmas tree!
With golden lights and sparkling cheer,
I've got a home forever here!
You're out in storms, I'm warm inside,
With all my treasures on display!
Oh, don't you wish you lived like me?
I wouldn't have it any other way!
