Skin Peels Away

Someday little children, the sky will turn to gray.

And with the fresh new rainfall, your skin peels away.

Someone argued wrong somewhere, they didn't get their way.

And now for some mysterious reason your skin peels away.

Skin peels away...

Skin peels away (I'm feelin' it down through my bones).

Put up all your playthings, put them all away,

'Cause when you go out walking, your skin peels away.

We should have left them all alone, their lives in disarray.

'Cause now for all relief and aid, your skin peels away.

Chorus

Tell me little children, do you know the way,

To hold yourself together while your skin peels away?

There won't be much cosmetic care, but if you have some faith,

You'll only look toward Heaven when your skin peels away.

Chorus
