Lyrics

See a young girl so soft and blonde
Doesn't attack me but she did once
Intoxications in her veins
Sweet young boy plays with her brain

Lydia'll bring to life
What are your chances not to oblige
Ability has now been ripped
Take it away, I'd rather sit

Sweet children
Sweet children
Sweet children 
Remember when?

Johnny's playing fun and games
Or else he's ?in the storage shed? 
Running from the light of day
Or maybe lie and celebrate 
The funny circus from his head
Follow me if you understand 
I'll trick her so she'll do it
Then I'll sing and now we run 

(Chorus)
(Bridge)
(Chorus)
