Too nice a day
Do you hear me now
It's too nice a day
I'm outside your window
I want to play.
Let's go to the arch
And dive off the side
Where the dragonflies march
And the water gets wide
We'll skip stones and compete
You're good, but I'll beat
We'll walk on a log
Find a turtle or a frog
We'll find a thrill in the mundane
Dad will take us to the water slide.
We'll go too fast, safe is too tame
But its stay on the sidelines or go for the ride.
I'll put a mouse in your shoe, but you'll get even with me
Just a practical joke, will be my plea
Revenge develops creativity
So you'll tie my sneakers up in a tree.
One day I'll be a fireman, you'll be a vet
We don't want to be kids till we're gray
Childhood's sun rises, Childhood's sun sets
Let's take it to the limit, then seize the day.
