Lyrics
Lullaby
It’s been a long time, I know
Seems like it could have been a couple days ago
We were lying in bed listening to the radio
You said “Take me away”
Well where do you want to go, baby?
She said “West, maybe
Take me down to where those great big beautiful red cedar trees grow
Where there ain’t no snow
And every little star in the sky seems to have a new glow
And we could call it home”
Young minds lost in a fairytale world
Where every good boy and every good girl
Is shooting blind
Young minds lost and singing along
No one really knows the words to the song
And they don’t mind
At least it makes a good lullaby
This busy little city
I used to call my home but now it’s just another
Dirty old town run by clowns
Who came up from the underground
And settled in while I was sleeping
Started sneaking
And in the night, when the rhyme was right
They replaced half my time with legal tender
Now those mad pretenders think that I don’t remember
But I haven’t surrendered
