Everything around you is just an illusion
Fact and fiction fusion,
But that’s not right for the future generation
Who judges it all with wide-eyed apprehension.
So come with me to the centre of the earth
Where there is no death so there is no birth.
Where sunshine floods
Chandelier cities
And all the people
Are young and pretty,
Where bare feet run through golden mud
And roses flow instead of blood.
Where smiling statues
Smile at you
And where ever you fall
There is a trampoline to catch you.
Where happiness is woven
And beauty is sung,
You will be president
Of Kingdom Come.
So follow my beckoning, coaxing hand,
Follow me to Neverland.
