Mother Goose and Peter Pan

Stopped by today for tea

The Easter bunny brought some eggs

For all the company

 

Santa and his reindeer

Provided rides for free

And fairies used their magic wands

Where money grows on trees

 

For little children everywhere

Are cherubs, everyone

Their souls are pure and innocent

Each daughter, every son

 

They trust that we’ll protect them

There’s never any doubt

The future’s willed to them alone

That’s what it’s all about

 

Let’s build a land of make believe

To guard them evermore

Oh, God my heart bleeds everyday

Why must they die in war?
