You gotta be careful when crossing the trapeze
Even if the despair of these new times weighs
If a like feeds hate, bro, in this episode
Soon common sense says take a breath
It's about learning like chalk and board
The spirit rests, prays and comes back one hundred percent
Silence everything the world says and thinks
About how much life is worth
Be light on this gray day
And she says 'God go with you, brotha, good morning'
She gave me a kiss and it turned into poetry
God go with you, brotha
And a flash of love burst into joy
God go with you, brotha
Come back to us like the number ten after the goal
My chest thumps, my eyes shine, that's having a family
So I'm gonna face everything head-on for her
For the little joys of adult life
I'm going to the front like a warrior
Even if it's to face the whole planet
Run the marathon, finish first
And shout it's for you, love
I'm gonna face everything head-on for her
For the little joys of adult life
I'm going to the front like a warrior
Even if it's to face the whole planet
Run the marathon, finish first
And yell 'it's for you, love'
It's a peaceful Saturday when you sleep longer
The comeback goal almost got us relegated
Stretch a holiday on these coasts
Find a Tupperware whose lid still fits
Earlier rosemary and some secrets sprouted
It looked like only grass would grow
She complains about the sour, picks up the toys
Today's triumph for me is the blue on the report card
A good diaper sale at those drugstores
The dough from overtime coming from work
Gifts made with gouache and crepe paper remind me of my day
I think God's dreams must be like this
So I'm gonna face everything head-on for her
For the little joys of adult life
I'm going to the front like a warrior
Even if it's to face the whole planet
Run the marathon, finish first
And yell 'it's for you, love'
I'm gonna face everything head-on for her
For the little joys of adult life
I'm going to the front like a warrior
Even if it's to face the whole planet
Run the marathon, finish first
And yell 'it's for you, love'
