DAVID BOWIE LYRICS - There Is A Happy Land

"There Is A Happy Land"



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
