I gave my friend a dime
to see his mother climb
a giant forest pine
in almost record time
She couldn't get back down
she jumped and hit the ground
we thought she broke her crown
she didn't make a sound
We thought that she was dead
until she moved her head
we put her in a bed
and called our Dr. Ted
He said that she was fine
but it's not right to climb
a giant forest pine
for just a lousy dime
