Essay Lyrics by King Konga

Monkey See, Monkey Groove

0

And there he stands -a little boy
No shoes on his feet and dirt in his hands
Molding dreams from the clay of his fathers
And fathers before him

And there he walks -a little boy
In a path already chosen
And in his mind the strides will all match
But his steps remain smaller

(only love will lead to love)
Behind all his notions of doubtful chagrin
Are old pickett fences thatÍll be white once again
And there he waits ready for a life to begin

And there he sits -a little boy
Gazing through windows
And all he sees in the abscence of peace
Is a world out of reach

Tell me whatÍs ahead where the light doesnÍt shine
A little boy whose lost and a life heÍs yet to find

What will become of his helpless cry
As the youth of a little boy passes by?

Only love will lead to love
