Speak Like A Child

Your hair hangs in golden steps You're a bonafide in every respect You are walking through streets that mean nothing to you You believe you're above it and I don't really blame you Maybe that's why you speak like a child; The things you're saying like I'm so free and so wild And I believe it when you look in my eyes; You offer me a life, and never lies Least only the kind to make me smile Your clothes are clean and your mind is productive It shops in store where only the best buy You're cool and hard, and if I sound like a lecher It's probably true, But at least there's no lecture I really like it when you speak like a child The crazy sayings like I'm so free and so wild You have to make a bargain with me now A promise that you won't change somehow No way, now how Spent all day thinking about you Spent all night coming to terms with it Time and conditions are built to tame Nothing lasts with age, so people say But I will always try to feel the same I really like it when you speak like a child I really like it when you speak like a child The way you hate the homely rank and the file The way you're so proud to be oh, so free and so wild I really like it when you speak like a child I really like it when you speak like a child I really like it when you speak like a child The way you're so proud to be oh, so free and so wild --- Speak Like a Child - The Style Council and Paul Weller
