Lyrics

Impossible Boy

[Verse 1: Irwin Sparkes & Alan Sharland]

The teller told an unusual tale

With spider words and webs to capture all the ears they fell upon

The story of an impossible boy

Who never even knew that he, he was real

[Verse 2: Irwin Sparkes & Alan Sharland]

He cast a spell of implausible joy

Armed with only charm, born of benevolence

He waved a wand upon a world so consumed with the boy

They never even knew that he, he was real

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1: Irwin Sparkes & Alan Sharland]

The teller told an unusual tale

With spider words and webs to capture all the ears they fell upon

The story of an impossible boy

Who never even knew that he, he was real
