"Polly" lyrics

"Polly"

Hey dreaming of a time when I was so young
When my body ruled my brain, and my brain was like a theme-park of fun
Where all the rides are free
That ran on opportunity
That hit us in the face like the sunshine of eternity

And the people in this park they would laugh and they would play
And I could make them hang around or I could make them go away
But, I often sent them home so we could have all the rides to ourselves
I like the ferris wheel, she like the dodgem cars

Oh but it took some time to realise
Some times to come to grips
With the fact that she did not exist
And I was only playing with myself

I was dreaming of a time where I could walk where big people walked
I was dreaming of a time when people'd listen when I would talk

But as we get to a place where my thoughts they don't seem as small as they once were
I'm working out, I'm working out people are turning their heads
When I wanna be heard

Hey dreaming of a time when I was so young
When my body ruled my brain, and my brain was like a theme-park of fun
Where all the rides are free
That ran on opportunity
That hit us in the face like the sunshine of eternity

But as we get to a place where my thoughts they don't seem as small as they once were
I'm working out, I'm working out people are turning their heads
When I want to be heard
Polly
