Teach the Gifted Children |
| Teach the gifted children |
| Teach them to have mercy |
| Teach them about sunsets |
| Teach them about moonrise |
| Teach them about anger |
| The sin that comes with dawning |
| Teach them about flowers |
| And the beauty of forgetfulness |
| Then take me to the river (take me to the river) |
| And put me in the water (and put me in the water) |
| Bless them and forgive them (take me to the river) |
| Father cause they just don’t know (take me to the river) |
| All the gifted children |
| Teach the gifted children |
| The way of men and animals |
| Teach them about cities |
| The history of the mysteries |
| Their vice and their virtues |
| About branches that blow in the wind |
| On the wages of their sins |
| Teach them of forgiveness |
| Teach them about mercy |
| Teach them about music |
| And the cool and cleansing waters |
| What do they say, take me to the river (take me to the river) |
| Take me to the river (take me to the river) |
| Put me in the water (take me to the river) |
| And teach the gifted children (take me to the river) |
| All the gifted children (take me to the river) |
| (Take me to the river) |
| (Take me to the river) |
