(Heaton/Rotheray)
|
Build your dream castle out of sand
|
It's bound to get washed up anyway
|
Dream your dreams out of last week
|
They're bound to have come up yesterday
|
|
If you want to give them flowers
|
Make them paper ones you send
|
Live your life a jigsaw
|
It goes back in the box, in the end
|
Build your dream heart from plasticine
|
'Cause you're putty in their hands
|
Mould your ambition in concrete
|
'Cause you'll only land in quicksand
|
|
Carve your dough from play-dough
|
'Cause they'll roll you into a ball
|
Make your friends from Lego
|
'Cause Lego makes a wall
|
|
'Cause when you build big houses
|
The paintings get stolen
|
The devil says he's silver
|
When you know that he is golden
|
When papier m?h■heads make more sense
|
than the sun
|
Giving teacher apples could be fun or dumb
|
|
Build your planes from Airfix
|
'Cause you'll only lose the war
|
Write your love letters on rice paper
|
At least you'll feed the poor
|
|
Build your dream castle out of sand
|
It's bound to get washed up anyway
|
Dream your dreams out of last week
|
They're bound to have come up yesterday
