The Park

I want to make a park and live on it
I don't know anyone in the city
That understands this part like you do
I'm leaving it here
I'm going to walk away
But with the park and the dogs
The birds and the squirrels
The cats and the people go away
Because it's my park
The land was just here
I took it and I made it a park
I like the trees
Green leaves
Alive
I'll make some pathways
And put rocks all around
I don't need a gymnasium
I'll sit up straight and keep my mind on you
You came and took control
You'll tell me what to do
And that's what it's all about
I'm making this park
There'll be lots of things to do out there
Hello
How are you
Fresh air and the dogs
And if there's some new thing
We'll check it out
