Leaves - Meat Puppets

One afternoon as dusk was nearing

I saw something I thought worth hearing

Something that’s been around so long

Now listen to my new year’s song

Who ever made up the calendar was wrong

It’s new years all year long

Each year is a minute

Only full of the leaves in it

Now Daddy said this to his son

I know for sure this can be done

We’ll cover up our tracks and then

Walk back the other way again

Who ever made up the calendar was wrong

It’s new years all year long

Each year is a minute

Only full of the leaves in it

One day in a forest clearing

I saw different things appearing

And now it’s been around so long

Now listen to my new years song
