One, two boys by the river

Down by the water

Tellin' riddles in the dark

With fireflies under the moonlight

Carvin' the insides of a tree with a knife

Ever hear the one about the boy's big sister

His best friend come along

He tried to kiss her

The only difference

That I see

Is you are exactly the same

As you used to be

One boy lives in a tower

With bow and arrow

And the artificial heart

With his girl

Maid of dishoner

He loaded the cannon

With a jealous appetite

They say that children now

They come in all ages

And maybe sometimes old men die

With little boy faces

The only difference

That I see

Is you are exactly the same

As you used to be

You always said that you needed some

But you always had more, more than anyone

The only difference

That I see

Is you are exactly the same

As you used to be
