Disappearing Fantasy
Gone in a flash is Santa and the tooth fairy
Why do we let our fantasy disappear
Then take them away from our little ones
We are the ones who destroy these fascinations
Is it wrong or right to destroy the delight of fantasy
We watch television of outer space and sharks that bite
We still fantasize with delight but, Santa isn’t real
We take away dreams of the youth teaching them
It’s not real, why do we not take away our space invaders
With the terminator and the Zombie trail of blood
Let the little ones be little and the big ones be big
STOP, taking away Fantasy
If the little ones believe then you should believe
Now our children are looking at machines because
We have taken their fantasy away
