Life's like that, delicious with clause
You never get the truth, just promises galore
Fool at the heart, don't look down
Everybody loves you when you're playing the clown

Oh, oh, mother dear
Don't let them shoot your kite down
Oh, oh, mother dear
Don't let them shoot your kite
Out of the sky

Another year came, glorious sun
I tried to be an acrobat before I could run
The afternoon came, trumpets play
Oh, oh, maybe I'll get outta here one day
Father, oh, father
Everybody's young and far too serious

Oh, oh, mother dear
Don't let them shoot my kite down
Oh, oh, father, yeah
You'd let them shoot me down for sure
Another year
Don't let them shoot my kite
Out of the sky
Life's like that

Oh, oh, mother dear
Don't let them shoot my kite down
Oh, oh, mother dear
Don't let them shoot me out of the sky
Oh, mother dear
Don't let them shoot your kite down
Out of the sky
Don't let them shoot your kite down
Out of the sky
Don't let them shoot your kite
Out of the sky
Don't let them shoot your kite
Life's like that, delicious with clause (Out of the sky)
Don't let them shoot your kite down
