Little Children

from The Recorder by Kobayashi

/

lyrics

We are all terribly impressed with ourselves
We are delighted by our DNA
We can’t remember our lives before
When it was any other way

Do you ever feel like there is something important
That is happening somewhere else, all of the time
In lives more infinitely interesting
Than yours and mine

Little children, little children,
Little children, you are over so soon
In the mainstream, cathode ray screen,
Little daydreams where we once shot for the moon

Eternal life
I’m still obsessed
But not through the doorway
Between life and death
Eternal life
It’s still the key
But not in a song
That comes from me, they can’t see

I have brought life in to a defunct world
I’ve seen it pass from this into the next
These moments don’t seem big enough
Perhaps they just don’t feel complex

We don’t try to sound like any of them. ... more
