From the recording The Daredevil Kid
Lyrics
THE DAREDEVIL KID
Craig Moreau
I've been working this day job for ten years or so
The paycheck is steady but these boots hurt my toes
I hung up my guitar when the baby was born
As well as a piece of my soul
All I thought that I wanted was more than I need
A comfortable chair and some night time TV
Catching a nap replaced chasing the dream
But what am I teaching my son
(chorus)
You can be anything you want to be
Fly just as far and high as you please
You can reach for the stars from the top of the trees
As long as everyone agrees
And you can land without skinning your knees
When decisions were made by the flip of a coin
Directions that we're given often ignored
Where unanswered questions were the air that I'd breathe
And the daredevil kid just lived for the dream
If fear is crime I'm guilty as sin
Afraid of the state that I used to live in
And lost are the days when I'd never give in
I wonder what happened to the daredevil kid
