Wrong tree When his limbs hung to the floor Thought he was inviting me to love him more But he broke my heart and said Sing, choir "You're climbing up the wrong tree." This word's only the burning "You're climbing up the wrong tree." This word's only the burning And the fruit I couldn't wait to eat Suddenly began to bleed Then I heard them shouting "You're climbing up the wrong tree." This word's only the burning "You're climbing up the wrong tree." This word's only the burning I was convinced he wanted the same But a life for you is a life in flames May these matches bring you joy "You're climbing up the wrong tree." This word's only the burning "You're climbing up the wrong tree." This word's only the burning I hear you loud and clear "You're climbing up the wrong tree." This word's only the burning I really wish we could've worked But I wouldn't listen to you when you told me what you wanted "You're climbing up the wrong tree." This word's only the burning Silly of me to cross the river that you put there You put the river there for a reason I shouldn't try to cross it for reason Sing, choir I wish we could've worked, wish we could've worked I'll get over it soon, But right now, right now I'm gonna moan and groan Rock myself to peace and moan and groan Moan...
