My Boy William - Little Comets

Cut all the pictures from a magazine

Must preserve the right to dream of

My boy William

Power to the unions, cannot save my soul

Lost my faith in rock and roll

Tell it to my boy Wiliam

My boy William

When you reach that low

At your nadir

When they creep up beside you

And whisper nothing in your one true ear

I hope you resist

And you stand so tall

And that grief will desert you

Leave a message on your bedroom wall

Stand

Cause there’s more than this that meets the eye my love

Don’t drown your dreams, stay true but

Try as I might

There’s so much to learn and much to sow my love

But try as you might

All is burning

All is burning

All is burning now

Cut all the pages from a magazine

So my boy stays true enough

I cut all the pages from a magazine

So my boy stays true enough to dream

Cause there’s more than this that meets the eye my love

Don’t drown your dreams, stay true but

Try as I might

There’s much to learn and much to sow my love

But try as you might

But try as you might
