one, two boys by the river
down by the water
tellin' riddles in the dark
with fireflies under the moonlight
carvin' the insides of a tree with a knife
ever hear the one about the boy's big sister
his best friend come along
he tried to kiss her
[chorus:]
the only difference
that i see
is you are exactly the same
as you used to be
one boy lives in a tower
with bow and arrow
and the artificial heart
with his girl
miad of dishoner
he loaded the cannon
with a jealous appetite
they say that children now
they come in all ages
and maybe sometimes old men die
with little boy faces
[chorus]
[repeat]
you always said that you needed some
but you always had more, more than anyone
[chorus]
[repeat] |
