Space Age Eyes

[Verse 1] Oh, my firstborn, you're a fine one But you seem a tad confused With so many paths before you You don't know which one to choose And they will ask for information To assess your lippy health And if they question your intention You should keep it to yourself [Chorus] And it's not like I don't trust you Or think you've been unwise You don't need some old guy's insight In your space-age eyes [Verse 2] Now my offers of assistance I'll reject it out of hand You're still living in the '60s You can't hope to understand It's a different set of ceilings That you smash your head upon Those pretty flowers, they lost their meaning Now your cosmic world has gonе [Chorus] And it's hard for us to take it When we stop to rеalize That we're little more than halfwits In your space-age eyes [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Oh, my darling, you will always Be a child in my mind Though I'll try to see a grownup I can't leave that kid behind So I get it, I'm a hen dad As I'm clucking 'round your drum I will cut my stupid head off But my legs still want to run [Chorus] And I promise I'll do better And so back off will arise And I could not find approval In your space-age eyes
