My little boy on the kitchen floor
|
(my little basquiat)
|
Stick men fighting stick dinosaurs
|
(my little basquiat)
|
Colours leaping all over the mat
|
(my little basquiat)
|
The kitchen floor is where it's at
|
For my little basquiat
|
|
One day
|
He'll be golden
|
Maybe chosen
|
Perhaps to lead
|
One day
|
He'll be shaken
|
Maybe taken
|
Perhaps to bleed
|
|
My big girl swinging from the bars
|
(my little comaniche)
|
Fist of stone flying above the yard.
|
(my little comaniche)
|
Halfway up is halfway down
|
(my little comaniche)
|
Or maybe it's the other way around
|
For my little comaniche
|
|
One day
|
She'll be moonlight
|
Maybe too bright
|
Perhaps, to shine
|
One day
|
She'll be found out
|
Maybe ground down
|
Perhaps she'll cry
|
|
My little girl on her mothers lap
|
(my little panchen lama)
|
Sucking on her fingers, surveying the roadmap
|
(my little panchen lama)
|
Seems to be the only one around
|
(my little panchen lama)
|
That sees the red lights at the end of town
|
(my little panchen lama)
|
|
One day
|
They'll be older
|
Maybe bolder
|
Perhaps, than me
|
One day
|
They'll be rising
|
Maybe living
|
Perhaps, in peace
|
