this is the boy who burns the books
this is the way he always looks
this is the boy who smashed his car
this is the boy who went too far
washed his eyes with yellow soap
he stole his daddy's microscope
all alone or in a crowd
never say his name aloud
now he wants to know your unit's name
where you go and whence you came
he's the mecha-mania boy
this is the boy who never goes slow
he is the one who destroys his young
(oh no everybody got a new way to go)
all alone or on the telephone
he knows the time you spend at home
(oh no never say i didn't tell you so)
washed his hands of his daddy's fate
he put himself in an alternate state
in a crowd or all alone
no one's laughing anymoreAs the days dance into a nightmare rise while
the moon howls in it's pale light as time moves
the wind blows on while I sit here I must keep
growing on it's dawn to dusk when black becomes
white it's when sea touches land even opposites
unite it's sunshine on a rain pelted road it's a
handshake and a punch to be throne nothing sure
to be here tomorrow nothing's sure to last the
whole day but if there's somthing you can count
on in life the only thing that's permanent is
change it's the seconds that strive to make a
full day the minutes that cry as hours slip away
as time moves and the wind blows us on while you
sit there you must keep growing on
