I saw the trees fall, one by one
And the bears yell “it’s not yet won”
The bombs exploded, the air filled with smoke
My spirit was destroyed, my heart was broke
I saw the horrors, I felt the pain
But for what I fight for, it ends with gain
Now I reside in the forest, protecting my friends
From those who would harm them, till the end.
I’m still here, and I will yet fight
For the trees, and all that’s right
So if you see me with a gun in my hand
Do not be afraid, don’t misunderstand
I’m only armed to protect the trees
From those who would bring them to their knees
I am the lorax
I speak for the trees
And I will never let them be harmed with ease
