Long Walk From Childhood |
Sandman, Candyman, Jesus and Dad, a furry soft bed to hold. |
Puppy paws, Santa Clause, an' not being bad, believing in what you’re told. |
Oh the world of a child is all black and white, and prayers are easy to say, |
No shades of grey, cloud wrong and right. |
I followed life that way. |
On the long walk from childhood, the long walk from childhood. |
Time flies, eager eyes, hungry to see, find holes in holy things. |
Idols fall, one and all, and truth is a cheat that dances on puppet strings. |
And the soldiers gun is a mockery, of the Sunday prayers that we prayed, |
Wrong is right and right is wrong, I measured life that way. |
On the long walk from childhood, the long walk from childhood. |
Answer-man, Preacher-man, thinker and Bum, life is a market place. |
Hear them cry, will you buy, and march to my drum, we’ll save the human race. |
So I hum the words and I dance the tune, and change a bit every day. |
Find the truth where I can, if I can, each step along the way. |
On the long walk from childhood, the long walk from childhood. |
