Your daily chores don't bother me
I don't know domesticity
Forever I'll be wild and free
No angst or stress do I forsee
Time and tide don't concern me
I stand alone so let me be
You'll not see me on bended knee
To be this way you must agree
Is a sound philosophy
I develop with impunity
My kind and I you like to see
As the seasons transform me
A wondrous life to be a tree
