Lyrics for Terrarium by Dar Williams:
| | | Artist: | Dar Williams |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | Terrarium | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 91 | | | | Lyrics: | It's another world we live in here so radical and clean
Every Saturday we protest things out on
the campus green
And we came from far to find this place where hearts and minds are free
And
we walk together on the grass in peaceful anarchy
Where the things we've amassed are
undeniably surpassed
By the value of our goals and how high we can reach
So when no one can
pass Professor Leon Siegel's class
It's okay because we still absorb the great things he can
teach
We send our greetings from the terrarium
That earthy college paradise where kids
can work and play
But you know that when we leave from this terrarium
We're told that we are
going to save the world someday
It's another world we live in 'midst the placid
greenery
We can talk about disaster and admire the scenery
When we cannot find an answer to
our Nicaraguan war
We can order out for pizza and deliver it some more
But while
nothing much gets done and what we do just looks like fun
You must remember what we do is more
important than it sounds
For when a case is well done in Constitution 101
We know that
bigger trials are possible to win on bigger grounds
We extend our greetings from the
terrarium
That earthy college paradise where kids can work and play
But you know that when
we leave from this terrarium
We're told that we are going to save the world
someday
There's a fear that you will sell your dreams for stock and cut your hair
As
you throw your graduation cap up in the real world air
Then you see a man in uniform approaching
your best friend
As he shakes the woman's hand he says | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
