Coming of Age
kid wants to play in the grown-ups' court
cannot reach to the shelf but won't listen to 'no'
kid wants to read all the grown-ups' books
cannot understand a word but so sure doesn't care
go, kid, and play with the other kids
go and have fun, leave the worries to us
wait till you grow up, wait till you get wise
we will heap responsibilities on you then
go, kid, and play, let your kite fly high
the era of innocence, enjoy while it lasts
bye kid, now run, I will wave after you
fall and stand up, little steps at a time

when kids become a responsibility, it is like you meet an angel and tell her/him to dry clean the halo and the wings cause it isnt looking too white-

welcome my son
welcome to machine
where have you been
its all-right we know where you've been
you been in the pipe-lines
filling in time
provided with toys,scouting for toys
you brought a guitar to punish yer ma
you didnt like school,and you know you're nobody's fool
so welcome to machine
