Kid Gloves Songtext
von Rush

A world of difference, a world so out of touch
Overwhelmed by everything, but wanting more so much
Call it blind frustration, call it blind man′s bluff
Call each other names, your voices rude, your voices rough
Then you learn the lesson that it's cool to be so tough

Handle with kid gloves, handle with kid gloves
Then you learn the lessons taught in school won′t be enough
Put on your kid gloves, put on your kid gloves
Then you learn the lesson that it's cool to be so tough


A world of indifference, heads and hearts too full
Careless of the consequence of constant push and pull
Anger got bare knuckles, anger play the fool
Anger wear a crown of thorns, reverse the golden rule
Then you learn the lesson that it's tough to be so cool

Handle with kid gloves, handle with kid gloves
Then you learn the weapons and the ways of hard-knock school
Put on your kid gloves, put on your kid gloves
Then you learn the lesson that it′s tough to be so cool

Anger got bare knuckles, anger play the fool
Anger wear a crown of thorns, reverse the golden rule
Handle with kid gloves, handle with kid gloves
Then you learn the weapons and the ways of hard-knock school
Put on your kid gloves, put on your kid gloves
Then you learn the lesson that it′s tough to be so cool
So cool
