Mystic Child
-------------
It was only the time of the newly born dead
with wispy cobwebs in your head
The polar moon looked out instead
going wild
Liquor shifting through the brain
The manic-depressive goes insane
going wild, going wild
Desperate anger hits the streets
by the foul smelling river by the meat market
going wild
mystic child
going wild
mystic child
In the winter with frozen toes
Looking out the big windows
you fly
going wild
Situation x out of control
My eyes half opened like a mole
who smiles
going wild
who smiles
going wild
In the mystic morning where the river meets
the hurdy-gurdy of the hip hop beat
5 a.m. the viscous street
Oh wild
going wild
Out the window like a flash
Falling through the rooftop crash
blind
going wild
Sick and misty like a pup by the curb he's
throwin' up
wild
like a child
going wild
like a child
He can't have all that relates
to testify that he is great
He'll cut someone with a broken plate
and stand upon the subway grate
and smile
going wild
going wild
with a smile
Holy morning
sun is up and someone
here has lost his cups
The dawn is tattered all cut up
going wild
like a mystic child
like a mystic child
Sunday morning looking down from the rooftop
goin wild
with a smile
mystic child
Top of the world he's got it made
His rings are gold his braids are jade
He jumped to the street
He's got it made
Goodbye child
goodbye child
mystic child
going wild
Like a mystic child
Goodbye
Goodbye
Going wild
Going wild
like a mystic child
Early morning, the sun is gone
Going wild
like a mystic, like a mystic, like a mystic child
Going, going, going, going, going
like a mystic child
ooooooohhhh, ooooooohhh
don't you see
