Arlette - Climbing a Slide lyrics

Climbing a slide that is high, high, high Something like climbing a mountain At the top if you're brave to your friends you can wave Swoosh down and start all over again Some kids like to climb up the slide So hot and contrary I have to wonder why Flying a kite ‘til it's way out of sight On purpose letting go of your balloon These are things that we do when we walk without shoes We let go of childhood too soon Some kids need to cry, cry And other kids their eyes are always, always dry Will we get older we want to dance free Sing and laugh like a child Society molds us when our mother's won't hold us We get angry and frightened and wild Some kids like to climb up the slide So hot and contrary I have to wonder why Climbing a slide it is high, high, high Something like climbing a mountain At the top if you're brave to your friends you can wave Swoosh down start all over again
