A Big Red Kite

I know I owe you a better time

Then the way that I've been

But something's messing with my mind

And it's not giving in

They say that I should want to be

A man who leads us all

But every time I look I see

Another leader fall.

So I'm gonna sit in a green field and

Fly a big red kite

I'm gonna, send my mind up the string

And I'm gonna get it right.

They say that I should want to have

A big bank account

What Uncle Sam don't take from me

Man I don't need to count.

So I'm gonna sit in a green field and

Fly a big red kite

I'm gonna, send my mind up the string

And I'm gonna get it right.

They say that I should want to stand

For what I don't believe

I'm sitting thinking to myself

What kind of man could leave

Yes I'm gonna sit in a green field and

Fly a big red kite

I'm gonna, send my mind up the string

And I'm gonna get it right.
