Ballad For A Child |
I’d rather be a plant than a child on this land |
Not a child, not a man |
Ooo branches can grow free, whoa yeah |
Again and again and again |
I don’t know why I can’t |
A tree is a work of God |
That only lasts a little while |
But what the whole world really needs |
Is a baby’s smile |
