lyrics

Golden Days (Herselman)

When they ask you why you're smiling so
You turn around and say
“well, wouldn't you like to know?''
They always think that you're up to something
Well up is the word
And its happiness it brings!
Because:
Some days they bring water
Some days they bring wine
Some days they bring music
And you're having a good
Having a good time!
Some days they bring water
Some days bring some sunshine
Some days they bring music
And you're having a good
Having a good time!
With all this jazz
And then they ask you what you're laughing about
You keep on laughing
('cause it turns them inside out)
You can smile again
('cause you're free and they're mild)
You know a playground has dangers
But you don't care
(if you're a child)
When you see them coming at you
With that wiry grin
They've got a big black box
And they want to put you in
You just smile, throw your fears away
Your troubles are gone in the wind
You're staring at a problem so old
But you're safe if you're one of the children!
Are you one of the children?
Are you one of the children?
With all this jazz
Because some days they bring water...
In all this jazz
You just go up, up, and away
Smile like a child and all your tears run away
You just go up, up, and away
You cry like a child and all your fears run away
You just go up-you go all the way
A golden year inside a golden day
You just go up-you go all the way
A golden year inside a golden day
Because: -some days they bring water...
Having a good, having a good time
Having a good, having a good time
