Then Came The Children (LP版) - Paul Siebel[00:00:00]
Come gather all around me friends[00:00:23]
I'll tell to you about the minstrel band[00:00:27]
Of children in their witches hats[00:00:33]
And painting pictures with the pipes of pan[00:00:37]
The young boy and his sister played[00:00:44]
Some tunes upon a whistle made of tin[00:00:47]
And led me through the flower gardens[00:00:54]
Laughing at the postman's stubby chin[00:00:57]
In my dizzy stupor I was trying[00:01:04]
Hard to forfeit all I'd known[00:01:09]
And listen to this music that could[00:01:14]
Swirl me in a magic all their own[00:01:18]
Somewhere in the distance you and I[00:01:42]
Had fought the monster to a draw[00:01:46]
In those days of books and wine[00:01:53]
With Ferlinghetti grasping for a straw[00:01:56]
Out along the highways we had[00:02:03]
Journeyed far to find the mystic smile[00:02:07]
With chasing down identities my God[00:02:13]
We must have run a million miles[00:02:18]
Oh we can teach them nothing nothing[00:02:24]
But survival in a desert bare[00:02:28]
But they can teach us how to love[00:02:34]
And live and tie bright ribbons in our hair[00:02:38]
Oh sing for us you children tinkle bells[00:03:02]
And rhyme the purple green and blue[00:03:07]
And think of us as fighting fools[00:03:12]
Who wintered through the seasons loving you[00:03:16]
Oh we can teach them nothing nothing[00:03:23]
But survival in a desert bare[00:03:27]
But you can teach us how to love[00:03:33]
And live and tie bright ribbons in our hair[00:03:37]
