lyrics

A prologue of sorts:

Deep in the great midwestern plains lies a sleepy little town, carved out of the roots beneath an ancient oak tree.

Few people have made the journey to visit, mostly due to the hidden nature of the settlement. No map or compass will guide you there, but when the bustle of the cities and trains lead you astray you may find it.

Sitting upon a hill, surrounded by an ocean of golden grass towers the great tree. It’s leaves sway gently in the breeze as they pass its way, the tree may seem ordinary or dull to those who do not know where to look, but those who take a moment to watch may see the true nature of what lies beneath.

It is a town that your eyes never see
chattering peacefully under the tree
Oddities and critter-folk bustle around
Living their lives in this small wooden town
Under this oak, they dance and they play
The cracks in the roots tell them what time of day

For year and years we strayed from the world,
Scared of tails and the horrors we’ve heard,
But for just today we open our doors
And invite you to see just what lies in store.

Rain or shine our hearts filled with glee
We welcome you all to beneath our great tree
