You must go and see
the old Brunswick Square plane tree
It's like three different tree-souls
have got together for a dance
You must go and see
the old Brunswick Square plane tree
lithe joyful serpent-like branches
swooping down low
then up away to the top of the sky
You must go and see
the old Brunswick Square plane tree
the old Brunswick Square plane tree
Gnarled, majestic, breathing in and out
sheltering us under a mellow mystical
canopy of joyful green
and orange and brown and bare
Take it from me
you must go and see
the old Brunswick Square plane tree
the old Brunswick Square plane tree
Its gigantic elephant-foot of a trunk
gracefully bouncing off the seasons with dappled
time in the rustling wind nonchalance
leaves nothing to the imagination
There's nothing plain about
the old Brunswick Square plane tree
You must go and see
the old Brunswick Square plane tree
the old Brunswick Square plane tree
