Squaking, swishing, swaying, as I march through the forest
I am as spotted as a cheetah
I am as brown as tree bark
I am the loudest of the forest
I am the king of noises
Replicating I am,
In my forest of lush bushes, thriving trees
But as the days pass, forest fades
Smaller it gets as I mimic the sounds of chainsaws
Vroom, I hear as trees fall down
Open spaces, nowhere to hide
