Shoobie Doobie (The Mask of Time)
Covalito & Walters © 2009
Won’t you come out to play
Won’t you come out to play
Won’t you come outside and play with me
Can you hear the children laughing
Laughing at the dawn
See their heads alive with colors
Living on and on
The endless dream of youth
Our unforeseen truth
Angels spreading their wings
And voices raised to sing
Can you see the elders watching
Watching in disgust
Once their heads were full of color
Now thery’re full of rust
Are they lost within the years
Trapped in a cage of tears
Angels without wings
And voices that never sing
Shoobie – doobie la da da doo day
Won’t you come outside with me and play
All day long it’s in and out and up and down the stairs
Haven’t got a problem or a worry or a care
In the morning watch cartoons
Out to play in the afternoon
Tell you what I say/ / /
It’s a Shoobie – doobie la da da doo day
Shoobie – doobie la da da doo day
Won’t you come outside with me and play
Shoobie – doobie la dad a doo day
Won’t you come outside with me and play
Sitting on my front porch watching
from my rocking chair
My eyes are red my skin is wrinkled
gray spots in my hair
In the front yard children play
I call to them and wave
They just turn away
They never call my name
I’m not too old too play
Shoobie – doobie la da da doo day
Won’t you come outside with me and play
Shoobie – doobie la dad a doo day
Won’t you come outside with me and play
I know you think of me as an old man
Out of step with time
But I still hold the dreams of a young man
Deep inside my mind
And inside the - brightness shines
the brightness it still shines
All you - see is the mask of - time
What I wear is the - mask of time
Won’t you come out and play?
Shoobie – doobie la da da doo day
Won’t you come outside with me and play
