Cops and Robbers

I got bruises on my knees
And a smile on my face
We climb through the straw
In the old barn, to our secret club
A feast of dreams at this place

We play cops and robbers
Feel the joy running through me
And running through our village to hide away
Smell the summer, hear the mowing machines
We play in a world, so limitless

We control the sun in our neighbourhood
We jump into days and
We hang in the trees
We sing abc's
We follow the bees
We're digging big holes and we're building huts

In the summer's heat and the winter's snow
As soon as it's light we go
A ball on my head
I'm counting, run ahead!
This gang's never dead
Even though the night comes this day is still ahead

We steal cassettes from our parents case
Record our bubbling nonsense on tape
And tonight there's the circus in the town
The big great show in our room

Someone get the ladder
Now we get in without a key
We're climbing through a window
We cheer, we're free
Knife on wood we leave our legacy
The time of our lives
We're speeding on our bikes
Downhill, it's electrifying me
We go for a race, the smile on my face

We control the sun in our neighbourhood
We jump into days and
We hang in the trees
We sing abc's
We follow the bees
We're digging big holes and we're building huts

In the summer's heat and the winter's snow
As soon as it's light we go
A ball on my head
I'm counting, run ahead!
This gang's never dead
Even though the night comes this day is still ahead

Hey
Say
Today
There's no doubts, no rush, no enemy
We feel
Peace of mind
And a friendly brawl from time to time

We control the sun in our neighbourhood
We jump into days and
We hang in the trees
We sing abc's
We follow the bees
We're digging big holes and we're building huts

In the summer's heat and the winter's snow
As soon as it's light we go
A ball on my head
I'm counting, run ahead!
This gang's never dead
Even though the night comes this day is still ahead
