Muir Woods Lyrics

We call this place our home

The green fern tails and sequoia groves

We’ve not fine jewels or a coat of arms

Beloved kin in the woods of the low-born

So don’t look down with your priggish frown

Sorry ‘cos you lost your worldly crown

Living for nothing in a lonely town

We fought you once before but now you’ve come back around

To Muir Woods

Amphitheatre glow

We seek an absolute through telescopes

We’ve not fine jewels or a coat of arms

Beloved kin in the woods of the low-born

So what be their function if not shapes for us?

Extrapolating meaning from a cosmic dust

Bridges strong supported by an ancient trust

We fought you twice before but now you’ve come back for us

To Muir Woods
