Bury me beneath the shady tree
And please make sure they never tear it down
And I need this time to be at peace
I need this time to find
Where I've been coming from
Its not in this
The flesh you see
The walking talking animal that breaths
Nor is it in my thoughts or deeds
Or any mission that bonds me
It's here beneath the shady tree
That all I find...that I'll find
Meaning in the meat
Its here my matters may all die
And life itself become alive
Bury me beneath the shady tree
Bury me beneath the shady tree
