Pardon me, I was there

You were where?

At the treaty house. (At the treaty house?)

There was a tree

Which was where?

Very near

Over here? (Maybe over there)

But there were trees then, everywhere

May I show you?

There were trees then, everywhere (If you please)

But you were there

And I was there!

Let me show you

If you please

I was younger then

I was good at climbing trees

I was younger then

I saw everything!

I was hidden all the time

It was easier to climb

I was younger then

I saw everything!

Where they came and where they went

I was part of the event

I was someone in a tree!

I was younger then!

Tell him what I see!

I am in a tree

I am ten

I am in a tree

I was younger then

In between the eaves I can see

Tell me what I see

I was only ten

I see men and matting

Some are old, some chatting

If it happened, I was there!

I saw everything! (I see everything)

I was someone in a tree

Tell him what I see!

Some of them have gold on their coats

One of them has gold

He was younger then

Someone crawls around passing notes

Someone very old

He was only ten

And there's someone in a tree

Or the day is incomplete

Without someone in a tree

Nothing happened here

I am hiding in a tree

I'm a fragment of the day

If I weren't, who's to say

Things would happen here the way

That they happened here?

I was there then (It's the fragment, not the day)

(I am here still) It's the pebble, not the stream

It's the ripple, not the sea

Not the building but the beam

Not the garden but the stone

Not the treaty house

Someone in a tree

Pardon me, I am here

If you please, I am also here

They kept drinking cups of tea

They kept sitting on the floor

They drank many cups of tea

No, we told him that before

If you please, I am here

You are where?

In the treaty house. (In the treaty house?)

Or very near

Can you hear?

I'm below

(So I notice) Underneath the floor

And so I can't see anything

I can hear them

But I can't see anything

But you can hear?

But I can hear

Shall I listen?

If you please

I can hear them now

I shall try to shift my knees

I can hear them now

I hear everything

I'm the part that's underneath

With my sword inside my sheath

I can hear them now

One is over me

If they knock, then I appear

I'm a part of what I hear

I'm the fragment underneath

I can hear them now!

Tell us what you hear!

First I hear a creak and a thunk

Now I hear a clink

Then they talk a bit

Many times they shout when they speak

Other times they think

Or they argue it

I hear floorboards groaning

Angry growls, much droning

Since I hear them, they are there

As they argue it

I'm the listener underneath

Someone reads a list from a box

Someone talks of laws

Then they fan a bit

Someone bangs a fist

Someone knocks

Now there was a pause

Then they argue it

"But we want -"

"No, you can't -"

"And we won't -"

"But we need it

And we want -"

"Will you grant -"

"If you don't -"

"We concede it -"

And they sat through the night (I can hear)

And they lit yellow tapers (them)

I was (I'm a) (And they)

There (fragment of the) (chat and they fight)

The (day) (and they sit signing papers)

If I weren't, who's to say (I am there still)

Things would happen here the way (If I weren't, who's to say)

That they're happening?

It's the fragment, not the day

It's the pebble, not the stream

It's the ripple, not the sea

That is happening

Not the building but the beam

Not the garden but the stone

Only cups of tea

And history

And someone in a tree
