[00:11.316] The antique people are down in the dungeons
[00:15.808] Run by machines and afraid of the tax
[00:20.045] Their heads in the grave and their hands on their eyes
[00:24.357] Hauling their hearts around circular tracks
[00:28.469] Pretending forever their masquerade towers
[00:32.756] Are not really riddled with widening cracks
[00:39.400] And i wave goodbye to iron
[00:43.320] And smile hello to the air
[00:58.244] O the new children dance ------ i am young
[01:00.456] All around the balloons ------ i will live
[01:07.157] Swaying by chance ------ i am strong
[01:11.332] To the breeze from the moon ------ i can give
[01:15.722] Painting the sky ------ you the strange
[01:19.865] With the colors of sun ------ seed of day
[01:24.344] Freely they fly ------ feel the change
[01:28.355] As all become one ------ know the way
[01:50.671] The velocity addicts explode on the highways
[01:54.564] Ignoring the journey and moving so fast
[01:57.922] Their nerves fall apart and they gasp but can't breathe
[02:01.673] They run from the cops of the skeleton past
[02:05.216] Petrified by tradition in a nightmare they stagger
[02:10.571] Into nowhere at all and they look up aghast
[02:18.770] And i wave goodbye to speed
[02:21.535] And smile hello to a rose
[02:35.554] O the new children play ------ i am young
[02:39.499] Under the juniper trees ------ i will live
[02:43.965] Sky blue or gray ------ i am strong
[02:47.964] They continue at ease ------ i can give
[02:52.261] Moving so slow ------ you the strange
[02:56.012] That serenely they can ------ seed of day
[03:00.223] Gracefully grow ------ feel the change
[03:04.707] And yes still understand ------ know the way
[03:21.819] The king and the queen in their castle of billboards
[03:25.743] Sleepwalk down the hallways dragging behind
[03:29.799] All their possessions and transient treasures
[03:33.847] As they go to worship the electronic shrine
[03:37.901] On which is playing the late late commercial
[03:41.970] In that hollowest house of the opulent blind
[03:48.022] And i wave goodbye to mammon
[03:51.365] And smile hello to a stream
[04:05.335] O the new children buy ------ i am young
[04:08.871] All the world for a song ------ i will live
[04:13.994] Without a dime ------ i am strong
[04:18.171] To which they belong ------ i can give
[04:22.688] Nobody owns ------ you the strange
[04:26.467] Anything anywhere ------ seed of day
[04:30.818] Everyone's grown ------ feel the change
[04:35.017] Up so big they can share ------ know the way
[04:51.886] The vaudeville generals cavort on the stage
[04:56.766] And shatter their audience with submachine guns
[05:02.039] And freedom and violence the acrobat clowns
[05:06.296] Do a balancing act on the graves of our sons
[05:12.465] While the tapdancing emperor sings 'war is peace'
[05:16.587] And love the magician disappears in the fun
[05:21.959] And i wave goodbye to murder
[05:24.815] And smile hello to the rain
[05:39.142] O the new children can't ------ i am young
[05:42.586] Tell a foe from a friend ------ i will live
[05:47.419] Quick to enchant ------ i am strong
[05:51.220] And so glad to extend ------ i can give
[05:56.001] Handfuls of dawn ------ you the strange
[05:59.689] To kaleidoscope men ------ seed of day
[06:04.029] Come from beyond ------ feel the change
[06:07.906] The great wall of skin ------ know the way
[06:26.007] The bloodless husbands are jesters who listen
[06:30.178] Like sheep to the shrieks and commands of their wives
[06:34.313] And the men who aren't men leave the women alone
[06:38.255] See them all faking love on a bed made of knives
[06:42.902] Afraid to discover or trust in their bodies
[06:46.663] And in secret divorce they will never survive
[06:51.278] And i wave goodbye to ashes
[06:54.463] And smile hello to a girl
[07:08.733] O the new children kiss ------ i am young
[07:13.028] They are so proud to learn ------ i will live
[07:17.923] Womanwood bliss ------ i am strong
[07:21.897] And the manfire that burns ------ i can give
[07:26.737] Knowing no fear ------ you the strange
[07:30.397] They take off their clothes ------ seed of day
[07:35.170] Honest and clear ------ feel the change
[07:39.158] As a river that flows ------ know the way
[07:56.836] The antique people are fading out slowly
[08:00.244] Like newspapers flaming in mind suicide
[08:03.763]Godless and nippleless directionless loons
[08:07.593] Their sham sandcastles dissolve in the tide
[08:11.218] They put on their deathmasks and compromise daily
[08:15.264] The new children will live for the elders have died
[08:21.502] And i wave goodbye to america
[08:24.402] And smile hello to the world
