1
Please trip them gently, they don't like to fall, Oh by jingo
2
There's no room for anger, we're all very small, Oh by jingo
3
We're painting our faces and dressing in thoughts from the skies, from paradise
4
But they think that we're holding a secretive ball.
5
Won't someone invite them
6
They're just taller children, that's all, after all
7
Man is an obstacle, sad as the clown, Oh by jingo
8
So hold on to nothing, and he won't let you down, Oh by jingo
9
Some people are marching together and some on their own
10
Quite alone
11
Others are running, the smaller ones crawl
12
But some sit in silence, they're just older children
13
That's all, after all
14
I sing with impertinence, shading impermanent chords,
15
With my words
16
I've borrowed your time and I'm sorry I called
17
But the thought just occurred that we're nobody's children at all, after all
18
Live your rebirth and do what you will, Oh by jingo
19
Forget all I've said, please bear me no ill, Oh by jingo
20
After all, after all
