Childhood

These long, effortless days
Have been quite the dream
You loll
You lay
You're unlearned
Take that veil off your eyes
Tend to your son
Hear his cries
Wake up young boy
It's time to be a man

When that drummer starts beatin'
It's your time to see the world
As it comes, as it circles
As your mind unfurls
Life is a goldmine
Don't worry about that coal
Your stay has been pleasant
But your nest is getting old
Wake up young boy
It's time to be a man

Your eyes once squinted
From peeking out the door
Now reach out your good luck hand
Pull your ship away from shore
I see your legs are spinning
But you're still sitting
You're still static
Soon we all aspire to something
So don't you panic
Wake up young boy
It's time to be a man
