lyrics

CHILDREN OF THE SUN

Cigarettes and candy
And some tattoo art
On a hot June night
Out in Railroad Park
They weren’t talkin
Bout the boredom
They don’t know who they are
They weren’t talkin bout the near
They weren’t talkin bout the far
Looks like everything’s done
And nothin’s begun
For Children of the Sun

Black t shirts and jewelry
Fellin so lovelorn
Neath the big marquee
Eatin popcorn
Did ya see the movie
Explode on screen
It’s the same old story
That we’ve all seen
No never be done
By stories we’ve spun
Children of the Sun

Well I’m sittin on Main Street
In my friends blue car
A mailman walks by
Couldn’t say who you are
Everyone walkin round
And carryin bags
Sunglasses on
And they’re wavein flags
Look out everyone
Can’t see where you come from
Children of the Sun

Heavy metal in the mornin
Folk music at night
Backpacks of wisdom
Nothin wrong or right
Rollin down the sidewalk
On an old two wheel
He gives a thumbs up sign
On a quick drug deal
Look out everyone
They’re on the run
Children of the Sun
