Lyrics:

Where is the boy with arms too short
To reach the bread across the table?
Where is the lad with hair so blonde
Kicking the sheets away, he sleeps in your bed
And he vanishes
Where is the boy who lived by rules
Taught by a host of TV cowboys?
Where are the rules and cowboys now?
Wrapped and packed away
So deep in your head and it vanishes
Show me the faith that kept me whole
Making me brash and undisguising
Why does it seem the carousel
Slips into town to stay for only a day
And it vanishes?
Then it gets in your way and it vanishes
Firt they showed me little things
That would open my eyes
Then they showed me little things
That would open my mouth, wisely
Then they told me hate and fear were the perfect disguise
Keep it all under wraps safe and sound
In your own sweet country
Right, it kept me whole
Made me brash and undisguising
Why does it seem the carousel
Slips into town to stay for only a day
And it vanishes?
So it gets in your way
And it vanishes
