about

lyrics

Careful the things you say
Children will listen
Careful the things you do
Children will see, and learn

Children may not obey
But children will listen
Children will look to you
For which way to turn
To learn what to be
Careful before you say
Listen to me

Careful the wish you make
Wishes are children
Careful the path they take
Wishes come true, not free

Careful the spell you cast
Not just on children
Sometimes the spell may last
Past what you can see
And turn against you
Careful the tale you tell
That is the spell

Guide them step away
Children will glisten
Tamper with what is true
Then children will turn
If just to be free
Careful before you say
Listen to me

Children will listen
Children will listen
Children will listen
