lyrics

LEFT SOCK TREE

I’ve been to the town
where the sun lies down
at the edge of the Whirligig Sea,
but I’m never gonna quit
till I go, till I get
to the bottom of Left-sock Tree.

The Left-sock Tree,
said the old crows three,
can be found if you lose a found key.
Every trinket ever lost
in the end gets tossed
to the bottom of the Left-sock Tree.

I’ve been to the place
where the Moon Man’s face
gets a wash on December 23,
but I’m never gonna stop
till I’m down looking up
from the bottom of the Left-sock Tree.

I’ve been to the shack
where the stars kick back
with the clouds for a peppermint tea.
But I just don’t know
if I’ll ever get to go
to the bottom of Left-sock Tree.

I’ve walked, I’ve sailed,
and I’ve flown, but failed
to discover where the missing toys be,
but I’m never gonna quit
till I go, till I get
to the bottom of Left-sock Tree.
