Danger Wil Robinson

Walking down the street along that old construction site Several children were playing slightly far off to the the right Playing around just below that old rickety elevator car and frame They kept running in and out while they were playing their little game But as the winds blew and that old rusty frame began to shake I immediately and instinctively knew that this decision I must make So I jumped over the fence and started running towards their way My fear becoming so immense in seeing how that shaft would sway And just as I got near they all looked over and towards me As for them it was not clear all those dangers they just couldn't see And as I called out and warned them of such dangers to be They looked backed with utter doubt so seemingly not to agree Just as you would not walk away there nor could I walk away here For there are many people who don't care though the message is so clear But you wouldn't just walk away for your heart would not allow it And so you stay, persevering, but you would never quit
