Silly Songtext
von Corey Smith

Rolling
Here we go
One, two, a-one, two, three
Sweet lemonade on ice, chocolate cake piled high
Icing thick upon the fingers of the birthday boy
He blew out all the candles, got his wish within the hour
A shiny new guitar his daddy bought him
And I watched him running ′round, getting dizzy falling down
Oh, how I wished I could join him
I wanna giggle like the children, be silly for a while
Silly like the fools we are
Oh, ignorance was bliss and it was easy to believe
Mama and Daddy were invincible
America was beautiful from sea to shining sea
No slavery, no slaughtering of the buffalo
The world was black and white, couldn't sleep on Christmas night
And all my doggies went to Heaven
Oh, oh, oh, oh
I wanna giggle like the children, be silly for a while
Silly like the fools we are


Come on, let′s giggle like the children, children's all we are
Let's be silly like the fools we are
Who are we to be so bold?
To think we′re as wise as we are old?
The more I see here, the more I′m certain I'm blind
Through the forest and the fields
Down the mountains, through the hills
The more I see here, the more I′m certain I'm blind
Well, I read a lot of books, you know I, I took a lot of class
Philosophy, religion, sociology
I′m a presidential scholar, I got a, a presidential seal on the degree
Collecting dust down in the basement
But I'm giving up the search, you know I′m going back to church
Give me law and give me scripture, give me Jesus
Oh, oh, oh, I
I wanna giggle like the children, be silly for a while
Silly like the fools we are
Come on, let's giggle like the children, children's all we are
Let′s be silly like the fools we are
Yeah, let′s giggle like the children, make a wish upon a star
And all in wonder like the fools we are
Oh, oh, oh, oh
