Legendary Child
Legendary Child
(I’ll tell you what I’m talking about!)
Making love at 17, yeah we had the luck
But we traded ‘em toys for other joys
And we didn’t give a… (whoah oh oh)
I took a chance at the high school dance
Never knowing wrong from right
And that same show 40 years ago
Being televised tonight
‘Cause journey from inside my head to the Taj Mahal
I went from never having none to want to have it all
I wanna keep that dream alive
And eat that honey from the hive
With all the noise and all the clamour
No surprise, you know I am a
Legendary Child
(I think that what I’m trying to say!)
Is sticks and stones may break your bones
At least they’ll rearrange
I drop a dime, and every time,
I get myself a nickel’s change (whoah oh oh)
They say we don’t know jack
At the plant we proved them wrong
We traded in our soul tonight
and sold them for a song
And if Satan had a lady friend her name was Mary Jane
I never wondered why she tried to drive us quite insane
And how we got that golden fleece
From toking on that pipe of peace
Yeah as far as I can see
There is a God ‘cause I got me a
