There is unrest in the forest,
there is trouble with the trees.
For the Maples want more sunlight,
and the Oaks ignore their pleas.

The trouble with the Maples,
(and they're quite convinced they're right,)
they say the Oaks are just too lofty,
and they grab up all the light.
But the Oaks can't help their feelings
if they like the way they're made,
and they wonder why the Maples
can't be happy in their shade.

There is trouble in the forest,
and the creatures have all fled,
as the Maples scream, 'Opression!'
and the Oaks just shake their heads.

So the Maples formed a union
and demanded equal rights.
"The Oaks are just too greedy...
we will make them give us light."

Now, there's no more Oak opression,
for they passed a noble law,
and all the trees are kept equal
by hatchet, axe, and saw.
