Lyrics
The boy cried out
The boy expressed himself vocally
Gaily on the ground
In a cheerful manner on the ground
At the joy
Experiencing joy
Of something he had found
Due to discovering something
Aw, come on children, get your heads back together
Encouraging children to regain focus or composure
Aw, come on children, get your heads back together
-Aw, come on children, get your heads back together
-The days are getting warmer now
Indication of the warming weather
The nights are getting shorter now
Reference to shorter nights as a seasonal change
And you know we can make it 'cause you know we're alive
Confidence in the ability to overcome challenges as a living being
But we don't have to take it, any way we'll survive
Choosing not to succumb to difficulties, opting for survival
If I were you
Advice to distance oneself from a problematic situation
I'd throw it far away
Suggesting discarding or moving away from the source of trouble
But if you were me
If the situation were reversed
You'd tell me I should stay
Encouragement to stay in the current circumstances
Aw, come on children, get your heads back together
Repeated encouragement for children to gather themselves mentally
Aw, come on children, get your heads back together
-Aw, come on children, get your heads back together again
-Again, again and again and again
Emphasis on the need for repeated collective mental realignment
Again, and again and again
-Again, again, again
-
