Standing at the bus stop with my shopping in my hands
When im over hearing elder ladies as the rumours start to fly
You can hear em in the schoolyard, in a scrapyard, in a chip shop,
in a phone box, in the pool hall, at the shoe store, every corner turned around
It started with a schoolgirl, who was running, running home to her mum and dad
She told them she was playing, in the change room of her local football side
They said tell us again, so she told them again, they said tell us the truth they
found it hard to believe
cause he taught our steve, he even trained me, taught uncle John Who's a father of three
But it only takes one tree, to make a thousand matches
It only takes one match, to burn a thousand trees, a thousand trees
You see it in the classroom, in the swimming pool, where the matchstick men are made
In the scouts hall, at the football, where the wise we trust are paid
They all honur his name, he did alot for the game
He got his name knocked up above the sports ground gates
But now there ripping them down, stamping the ground, picture gathers dust
behind the bar in the lounge
But it only takes one tree, to make a thousand matches
It only takes one match, to burn a thousand trees, a thousand trees
Wake up, smell the rain
Shake up he's back to stay
He hasnt been on a holiday
His growing seeds dont believe why he's been, yeaah
mellow)
Away in the schoolyard, change room, playing fields bathroom
Phonebox, office box, every corner turned around,
They keep doubting the flame, tossing the blame,
He got his name knocked up above the sports ground gates,
But now there ripping them down, stamping the ground,
Picture gathers dust behind the bar in the lounge
But it only takes one tree, to make a thousand matches,
It only takes one match, to burn a thousand treeeeees...........enjoy
