《Then Came The Children(LP版)》歌词

[00:00:00] Then Came The Children (LP版) - Paul Siebel

[00:00:23] Come gather all around me friends

[00:00:27] I'll tell to you about the minstrel band

[00:00:33] Of children in their witches hats

[00:00:37] And painting pictures with the pipes of pan

[00:00:44] The young boy and his sister played

[00:00:47] Some tunes upon a whistle made of tin

[00:00:54] And led me through the flower gardens

[00:00:57] Laughing at the postman's stubby chin

[00:01:04] In my dizzy stupor I was trying

[00:01:09] Hard to forfeit all I'd known

[00:01:14] And listen to this music that could

[00:01:18] Swirl me in a magic all their own

[00:01:42] Somewhere in the distance you and I

[00:01:46] Had fought the monster to a draw

[00:01:53] In those days of books and wine

[00:01:56] With Ferlinghetti grasping for a straw

[00:02:03] Out along the highways we had

[00:02:07] Journeyed far to find the mystic smile

[00:02:13] With chasing down identities my God

[00:02:18] We must have run a million miles

[00:02:24] Oh we can teach them nothing nothing

[00:02:28] But survival in a desert bare

[00:02:34] But they can teach us how to love

[00:02:38] And live and tie bright ribbons in our hair

[00:03:02] Oh sing for us you children tinkle bells

[00:03:07] And rhyme the purple green and blue

[00:03:12] And think of us as fighting fools

[00:03:16] Who wintered through the seasons loving you

[00:03:23] Oh we can teach them nothing nothing

[00:03:27] But survival in a desert bare

[00:03:33] But you can teach us how to love

[00:03:37] And live and tie bright ribbons in our hair
