Re: Fleetwood Mac - 'Beautiful Child' ( nt )

Nice. I knew there would be some Fleetwood Mac somewhere. I'm well aware of their few album covers in the early seventies that depicted children in the nude, and I often think of the Mac as somehow and very subtly one of the only true pro-pedo bands I know of. (Walt Mink and Jimi might be among others.) I wondered about their song "Gypsy" when I was making the list, one of my all time favorite songs, and one that I usually want to read in a pro-pedo way, but it's not as relevant as "Beautiful Child". "Tusk" isn't an album I'm all that familiar with; I'll have to give some more listens, obviously! Thanks!!!

Beautiful child
Beautiful child
You are a beautiful child
And I am a fool once more

You fell in love when I was only ten
The years disappeared
Much has gone by since then
I bite my lip, can you send me away
You touch
I have no choice
I have to stay
I had to stay

Sleepless child
There is so little time
Your eyes say yes
But you dont say yes
I wish that you were mine

You say it will be harder in the morning
I wait for you to say, just go
Your hands, held mine so few hours
And Im not a child anymore

Im not a child anymore
Im tall enough
To reach for the stars
Im old enough
To love you from afar
To trusting... yes?
But then women usually are

Im not a child anymore
No, Im not a child, oh no
Tall enough to reach for the stars
I will do
As Im told
Even if I never hold you again
I never hold you again
