Sally Wilfert - Song of Innocence and Experience lyrics

[DB] What is innocence exactly? Is it ever unattractive? Do the people who are innocent Think their innocence Makes them better Than the people Who have lost their innocent bliss? Hey, are you following this? [SALLY] And at what expense Does innocence become experience? Let us all commence To celebrate our lives Sometimes achievers Busy as beavers Might look back and say: "Hey, Dad, look what I built today!" [DB] What's experience exactly? Is it simply earned by living? Do the people with experience Need to understand That a life that's richened By experience becomes More unforgiving [SALLY] And at what expense Does innocence become experience? What's the consequence When something new gives way? For example, this building How much music it will bring I cannot say But Dad, look what we built today [DB] What expense What's the consequence When something new gives way? This building How much music it will bring I cannot say But Dad, look what we built today [COMPANY] And at what expense Does innocence become experience? Let us all commence To celebrate our lives And to honor this building How much music it will bring We cannot say But Dad, look what we built today [SALLY] Today [DARREN] Today [COMPANY] Today [SALLY] Today [DB] Today [ALL] Today
