The sun comes up and brings the dawn turn to day The kids run out to play the game like kids all play To child the world is milk and honey a dime is a lot a can be money Oh ain't it funny now ain't it funny Running barefoot through the fields in the rain Chasin' pretty butterflies in the lane The world's a mess and they wonder why oh what a pretty blue blue sky Gee ain't it funny now ain't it funny The kids all say grown ups are strange and aren't they They teach their kids not to do as I do but as I say They cry for peace and then make wars and wonder what they're fighting for Oh ain't it funny now ain't it funny Oh gee ain't it funny now ain't it funny
