Softy ears he can hear no shame
Button eyes he's nothin' to blame
All around there's so much trouble
Velvet Boy's gone and left his bubble
there he goes off to make a friend
They're gonna take him drag him 'round again
Can only hope they don't act so coy
They should be gentle he's a velvet boy
Ooh it's all too pure
The son against the world oh he can't score
Ooh ooh
He's really tryin' now to play it cool
But rain and pain is really up with fools
They kick him round and drag him through the mud
I hate to see it happen to ya bud
But we all know what goes around
You're gettin what you wanted sight and sound
If you'd have kept safe your button eyes
You wouldn't have to go around and die
Ooh I'm sorry friend
These ghosts that haunt your head are your own amends
Ooh ooh
Keep on going
Velvet boy
Be a brother be a friend
You're alright now
Have some joy
You're unwoven but it's not the end
Keep on going
Velvet boy
Be a brother be a friend
You're alright now
Have some joy
You're unwoven but it's not the end
