[Verse 1]
Pick a card, any card
Don't show it to me
Abracadabra
I've got nothing up my sleeve
And I may get it wrong or get it right
But either way I'm standing in the light
Where nothing is hid
I'm the magic kid

[Verse 2]
That's my kids with the cards
He's nine years old
With a head full of wonder
And a heart of gold
And there's not a trick that he can't figure out
And he's never stopped the show for fear of doubt
Like the rest of us did
He's the magic kid

[Bridge]
And who we are is who we are
Why is that so hard to be
When I watch him shine his star
It's so magical to me
And who we are is who we are
Why is that so hard to be
When I watch you shine your star
It's so magical to me

[Verse 3]
This world can be so full of darkness
In blown out flames
[?] dreams for pecking orders
In school yard games
But you shine your light for everyone to see
The only one I've known who's truly free
Yeah, he's a star but you will always be
You're the magic kid

[Outro]
Pick a card, any card
Don't show it to me
