O' Saturn
O' Sa turning
Got me learning
O, around and around
Got me stumblin' and fallin' down
I just wanna play
But you say, "No, not today"
Maybe tomorrow, maybe?
But today there is a little delay
Rings, rings of restriction
O, Father Time just laying down his conviction
Discipline on the scene
Oh goat, why you so mean?
Lessons, oh lessons of life
Sweet leaves atop I'm seeking despite longlasting strife
Top of the mountain I clearly see
Dreams inside just ready to run free
Sweat on my brow, toil on my face
Higher heights I'm going, leaving this sullen place
Yes! Up and up is where I'll be
In the meantime, O' Saturn is just a wrestlin' with me
