Well it has to get stuffy up in that tower all day Can you call it a view when you don’t get to look away? All day and night up there scanning the park For a rumor of smoke or a spark And you have to love something about it; you sure don’t get paid When I’m working the trails I think about you up there Thirty-six stories up, Jesus God that’s a lot of stairs And there isn’t any signal out here And the mail runs like nine times a year If it wasn’t so dry I’d surprise you and send up a flare Cos I’m looking at the trees And you can see the forest Down here in the weeds It’s hard to see you rooting for us When I lay my blanket down I want to take the long view But I’m sleeping on the ground You spend half of the wet season looking down at the rain Me I can pick any flower and tell you the Latin name That sounds to me like a pretty good start But it’s also what keeps us apart You say it is what it is and I say it’s a shame Cos I’m looking at the trees Twenty bucks says you are too If there’s anything you need I’ll try to make it up to you Or I can wait till you come down Keep me in the long view I’ll see you around
