Boy Wonder

(album: Positive Touch - 1981)

Boy Wonder never wants to grow up
Cos with some competition he won't look so great
But he's the biggest in the street
He knows to use his weight
But when he comes to realise
It will be too late

Kept away from school he didn't fit
And to the younger children he was it
Like an older brother who still wants to play
Innocent of hateful people and the things they say

He would want to be the last one there
About the cold he would say he doesn't care
Cos when we're gone he talks himself into another place
Everybody likes to know right to his face

Boy Wonder never wants to grow up
Cos with some competition he won't look so great
But he's the biggest in the street
He knows to use his weight
But when he comes to realise
It will be too late
