David Bowie - There Is A Happy Land lyrics

There is a happy land where only children live

They don`t have the time to learn the ways

Of you sir, Mr. Grownup

There`s a special place in the rhubarb fields underneath the leaves

It`s a secret place and adults aren`t allowed there, Mr. Grownup

Go away, sir

Charlie Brown got`s half a crown, he`s gonna buy a kite

Jimmy`s ill with chicken pox, and Tommy`s learned to ride his bike

Tiny Tim sings prayers and hymns, he`s so small we don`t notice him

He gets in the way but we always let him play with us

Mother calls, but we don`t hear

There`s lots more things to do

It`s only 5 o`clock, and we`re not tired yet

But we will be, very shortly

Sissy Steven plays with girls, someone made him cry

Tony climbed a tree and fell, trying hard to touch the sky

Tommy lit a fire one day, nearly burned the field away

Tommy`s mum found out, but he put the blame on me and Ray

There is a happy land where only children live

You`ve had your chance and now the doors are closed sir, Mr. Grownup

Go away, sir

Boo, de boo, de boo, de boo dup
