When this old world gets me down

"In the playground in my mind"

When this old world gets me down
And there's no love to be found
I close my eyes and soon I find
I'm in a playground in my mind
Where the children laugh
And the children play
And we sing a song all day

My name is Michael,
I've got a nickel,
I've got a nickel shiny and new
I'm gonna buy me
All kinds of candy,
That's what I'm gonna do

In the wonders that I find
In the playground in my mind
In a world that used to be,
Close your eyes and follow me
Where the children laugh
And the children play
And we'll sing a song all day

My girl is Cindy,
When we get married
We're gonna have a baby or two
We're gonna let them
Visit their grandma,
That's what we're gonna do

Living in a world
That I left behind
Happy little children
In the playground in my mind
See the little children
See how they play
In the playground in my mind
