The Marvel

Location

Glory of a hero-boy
Leader of the bunch
Since the day he was born
He had magic in his touch
Slowing time with tiny feet
Grasping hearts with dirty hands
Pretending to own a house
Playing in a marching band
Dressing up - Dressing down - Always with a grin
Left leg in - Left leg out - Do it over again
Explorer in a jungle
Dancer of the heavens
Swinging through the monkey bars
And lit with imagination
Grass is lava - Sidewalk's safe - Slide is a rocket ship
I'm the captain - You're the pilot - Fly! Dodge! Hit!
Excused by his innocence
Protected by our lullabies
By nature and by nurture
He electrifies
