While the moment's good you take what you can Because the moment might not be so good for long So you've got a tree It might just be a tree But if you only see a tree then you've got it wrong You could be showing us who's not afraid Or nestle underneath it's shade And maybe it's not perfect but it's here So take a chance The coast is clear When it's ripe you've got to grab the fruit Get it while you can And the rest will follow suit Maybe it's not paradise But for the price you're getting Its a deal you knocked up Knock on wood You've got to grab the moment while the moments good I don't think while the moments good is a thing, also I think you might be mixing your metaphors I think you might be mixing me up with someone else because my metaphors are awesome But the tree is the fruit? No the moment is the fruit, the tree is the moment, is the fruit Not important the point is, well for example Think about the bark You climb the bark while you embark so the bark therefore is sort of like the sea Yeah I hear it Take the shade The shade can be an aide for you when you want to unwind here on your own It's like an eagle, an eagle who so regally takes you underneath it's wing and I'm gonna stop you right there Yeah that was bad Look I appreciate the sentiment but this tree is not interesting to me I get it, it's some kind of magical palace for your birdwatching Birds can't afford palaces now who's not making any sense Not the point No the point is It might be hard to understand It might be slightly a little less grander than all the things you dreamed that you would do But it's just today Embrace what's here in front of you Getting there on the first try can be hard Stealing back and look for something right there in your yard Take it in discrete steps Pace yourself with easy street steps Let yourself be less than you think you should Nope not what I meant You got to take the moment while the moments good I just want to watch the birds go by Sitting underneath this giant Douglas fir Warrior girl sets out on her expedition Warrior girl climbs the tallest oak Or whatever it is She looks over roof tops from her high altitude position and she floats in the wind I want to watch them fly and fly so long as I can get away from her Wait what did you just say? If I could get a word in Then I would say That there's a way that both of you could find a common ground While the moments good You can take this opportunity, to talk it out So maybe you'll both come around Sorry for that thing I said It's ok let's hang out by this tree Just you and me and then this other guy I'm so glad that I could help Three, four It might be just a lonely stage right elm Or whatever it is But it could be a quiet spot to read Or something less silly like the helm of a pirate ship or a bridge that sits right up into the sky That sits right up into the sky It's a small dream but it could be just as good You got to grab the moment while the moments good [x3]
