Kid Songtext
von Dappled Cities

Where′s the kid who climbed this greater height
Who gave the older and wiser a wink of the eye
Then a graceful departure?
Whose ambition sold out best
For the forward and back with a candid and smiling attack
And a brain full of wonder

All the celebration, the cathedral and choir and machine
Are a blanket wrapped up in a kid with a mouth full of phrases


So long, may your lemmings tumble down
And bury deep your silly little town
They put up the belly of the whale

So you know that we're the kids who made a undivided supply
Of the land and a culture that waved the hand
Of a generation you can throw against our tide of saliva

So long, may your lemmings tumble down
And bury deep your silly little town
They put up the belly of the whale


And the kids said, "So long, it′s complicated
But this engine hums a line to the grumbling
Of how man made us so persistently slow
And so long, it's complicated
But faith delivers the belly of the whale"
