what a mischief you would bring young darling!

when you�re up for it before you�ve grown
A/C# Aadd11 A/C#
Wo-oo-ah oh ah oh ah oh
from the faun forever gone
in the towers of your honeycomb
I�d a tore your hair out just to climb back darling
when you�re filling out your only form
can you tell that itʼs just ceremon�
now you�ve added up to what you�re from
Wo-oo-ah oh ah oh ah oh
