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 going to buy a kite
Jimmy's ill with chickenpox
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
