It was so simple
Do anything you want,
Just don’t touch that tree.
That one single solitary tree.
All the rest are fine.
Just don’t touch that one.
One rule.
One tree.
Don’t touch.
Simple.
It looked good for food
Pleasant to the eye
Could make one wise
No cage or fence or guard
It was up the them
To obey
To stay
Or stray
One touch was all it took
One touch and they were exposed
One touch and so were we…the whole world
Today we revisit the scene
Today we’re reminded
We’re in this together
It’s simple.
Just like then.
Hard, perhaps.
But simple.
No cage or fence or guard
It’s up to you
It’s up to me
To obey
To stay
Or stray
Of us, what will they say
One touch was all it took
One touch and they were exposed
One touch and so were we…the whole world
