All They Ever Wanted
John Engelbert
Rotten trees outside the city
They've been there for years
And that's all they ever wanted
Shallow figures within the city
They've been there forever and ever
And that's all they ever wanted
Don't follow me into the city
I won't show you a good time
I won't take you out dancing
Wouldn't it be nice to be stuck in the forest
Like an old rotten tree with no need or wanting
Guns were made for disturbing the peace
People in the city will never all agree
On what they ever wanted
Some people think we all should have just one task
And some people don't think before they ask
Or everything they ever wanted
People in the city will never all agree
On what they ever wanted
