The people are down in the dungeons Run by machines and of the tax Their in the grave and their hands on their eyes Hauling their hearts around circular
Pretending their masquerade towers Are not riddled with widening cracks And I wave goodbye to And smile to the air
Oh the new children I am young all the balloons I live swaying by chance I am strong to the from the moon
I can give the sky You the strange the colors of sun Seed of day freely fly Feel the change as all one Know the way, the way
The velocity addicts on the highways Ignoring the and moving so fast Their nerves fall apart and gasp but can't breathe run from the cops of the skeleton past
Petrified by tradition in a nightmare they nowhere at all and then look up aghast And I wave to speed And smile to a rose
Oh the new children I am young the juniper trees I will sky blue or gray I am strong they continue at
I can moving so slow You the that serenely they can of day gracefully grow Feel the and yes still understand Know the way, know the way, the way
King and the queen in castle of billboards Sleepwalk the hallways dragging behind All their possessions and treasures As they go to worship the shrine
On which is the late late commercial That hollowest house of the blind And I wave goodbye to And hello to a stream
Oh the new buy I am young all the world for a I will live a dime I am strong to they belong
I can nobody owns You the strange anything, of day everyone's grown Feel the change up so big can share the way, know the way
The generals cavort on the stage And shatter audience with submachine guns And freedom and the acrobat clowns Do a balancing act on the of our sons
While the tap dancing emperor War is peace And the magician disappears in the fun And I wave goodbye to And hello to the rain
Oh the new children I am young a foe from a friend I will live to enchant I am and so glad to extend
I can give handfuls of You the strange to men of day come from beyond Feel the change The Great of Skin Know the way, the way
The bloodless husbands are who listen sheep to the shrieks and commands of their wives And the men who aren't men, leave the women See them all faking love on a bed of knives
to discover or trust in their bodies And in secret divorce they never survive And I wave goodbye to And smile to a girl
Oh the new kiss I am young are so proud to learn I will womanhood bliss I am and the man fire that burns
I can give knowing no You the strange they take off their of day honest and clear Feel the change as a river flows Know the way, the way, know the way
The people are fading out slowly Like newspapers flaming in mind Godless and sexless less loons Their sham dissolve in the tide
They put on their death masks, compromise The new children will live for the have died And I wave to America And hello to the world
