Little Kids

LITTLE KIDS As recorded by the Kings Of Convenience (From the 2001 Album QUIET IS THE NEW LOUD) [Intro]              [Verse 1] Little kids playing in the park downtown          Someone’s dad is watching from the side of the ground        I’m following my shadow so I cross the street     Car passing stereo I like the beat     [Interlude]                     [Verse 2] Open up the door turning on the fan       Dropping down the keys that I held in my hand And then start waiting for her steps To be heard in the staircase Enter the room and let down her bag Asking me all kinds of trivial questions Pretending an everyday life we don’t have Pretending an everyday life we don’t have Pretending an everyday life we don’t have [Interlude]             [Verse 3] Little kids playing in the park downtown     Soon they’ll be all gone as the sun goes down     Little kids playing in the park downtown     Soon they’ll be all gone as the sun goes down   And rises over Brooklyn Bridge tomorrow Hours later I will follow Wake up to a life that’s hollow without love Without love Without love [Outro]
