The Big and the Small Lyrics

Roosevelt speaks on the radio

While on the patio, darkness falls

And in the living room the homily

Of a fractured family fills the halls

If you think the big and the small are the same

And if you think the best thing is to walk away

Walk away

The first lesson of a variance in experience

This is strife

The slow transition from innocence to senescence

Such is life

If you don't think the big and the small are the same

And if you don't think the best thing is to walk away

Why don't you change

We once heard Roosevelt on the radio

We once heard Roosevelt on the radio

Now on through the cosmos it goes

Do you think a person or all are to blame

And do you think you're fairly a failure in name

And do you think the big and the small are the same

Why won't you change, or walk away

We once heard Roosevelt on the radio
