Lyrics
"Ascent of a Tree"

Well my baby,
She won't come see me no more
And just lately,
I ain't gettin' too sore
Thought of tradin' in,
But I can't do any more

Here I am with my dress suit on...
Hand in hand, all ill feelings gone
Must have been some disconnection
Or was it my obsession
Should I stay here awaitin’
Under the old oak tree

Well, my Sister
Don't bring me flowers no more
And my brothers
They ain't callin' for sure
Thought of tradin' in,
But I can't do any more

Here I am with my dress suit on...
Hand in hand, all ill feelings gone
Did I breed dissociation
Or was it my inflection
I should just go back to drinkin’ in
The shade of this old oak tree

All my family,
Looking down at me that day
And all my friends,
Couldn’t wait to get away
Thought of tradin' in,
But I can't do any more

Here I am with my dress suit on...
Hand in hand, all ill feelings gone
Could have been more instrumental
Now I'm feeling Transcendental
So here I lie looking up
At the ass end of a tree

Nice feel, lyrics are sweet, Taxman and Drive My Car engaged. The guitar solo is nicely fuzzy and works well. That "gotcha thing" is missing from the end maybe?

Rockin'
is this a Southern Rock style of thing, I like the imagery and the wit....it's a bit like the idea behind a folk song I heard which says that 'it was an occasion that needed a suit' similar sort of punchline....nice one chaps.

Harold...
I love the guitars in this! Really do man!!! No problem ripping the bass... It works... The percussion could come up a little for me... It sounds cool... But the guitars really take this.
