Kid Songtext
von Dappled Cities

Where′s the kid who climbed this greater height
Who gave the older and wiser a wink of the eye
Then a graceful departure

Who's ambition sold our best foot forward and back
With a candid and smiling attack
And a brain full of wonder

All the celebration, the cathedral and choir and machine
Are a blanket wrapped up in a kid
With a mouth full of praises


So long, may your lemmings tumble down
And bury deep your sill little town
Babe brought up the belly of the whale

So you know that we′re the kids who made up
A divided supply of the land and a culture that waved the hand of a generation
You can grow against our side of saliva

So long, may your lemmings tumble down
And bury deep your sill little town
Babe brought up the belly of the whale

And the kid said
So long, it's complicated but this engine hummed along
To the groan of how man made it so resistibly slow, and so long
It's complicated but babe delivered us the belly of the whale
