lyrics

It was on Saturday
That day the summer reigned
I was taking a break
And felt a bit depressed

Then came this unexpected sound
From behind that dirty wall

Few kids were playing around
Soldiers and magicians
Dragons flying in line
I saw their wonderland

Then one of them got close to me
Sir, would you play the dead old tree ?

Killed by a kid
Wasn't prepared to
If life could help me remember for a minute
That kids can hurt us too

I took my jacket off
And threw my tie and phone
My new friends had a laugh
As they see me jump and roll
My problems seemed so far away
Oh how I wished I could stay there

Then came suspicious eyes
A lady passing by
Our laugh was a bit too loud
The witch called 911
And then the cops arrested me
Freedom is only in our dreams

Killed by a kid
Wasn't prepared to
If life could help me remember for a minute
That kids can hurt us too
