Lyrics

THE WEIGHTLESS JOY OF BEING 9

RACIN' YOUR THREE BEST FRIENDS-
RED ROVER AND SIMON SAYS-
GOODBYE
HOT, ENDLESS SUMMER DAYS,
COOLES BY A SPRINKLER'S SPRAY-
GOODBYE
BUILDING YOUR OWN WORLD WITH NOTHING BUT CLAY

TIME AND TIME AGAIN WE TRY,
TO OPEN UP OUR MINDS TO SOMETHIN' SO SUBLIME,
AS THE WEIGHTLESS JOY OF JUST BEIN' 9-
NOT 29

JUST WHEN DO WE LOSE FAITH, IN WONDER AND FANTASY?
GOODBYE
PERHAPS IT'S NOT TOO LATE, TO SALVAGE SOME INOCENCE BEFORE WE SAY,
GOODBYE-
TO PLAY FIGHTS AND HAY RIDES AND OLD FRIENDS WE'VE MADE

TIME AND TIME AGAIN WE TRY,
TO OPEN UP OUR MINDS TO SOMETHIN' SO SUBLIME ,
AS THE WEIGHTLESS JOY OF JUST BEIN' 9-
NOT 39

SOLO

CUZ TIME AND TIME AGAIN WE TRY,
TO OPEN UP OUR MINDS TO SOMETHIN' SO SUBLIME,
AS THE WEIGHTLESS JOY OF JUST BEIN' 9-
NOT 49

RACIN' YOUR THREE BEST FRIENDS-
RED ROVER AND SIMON SAYS-
GOODBYE
