When
I was young and life was fun
I used to jump and play and run
Then I grew older, thought of cars
But never once of
bamboo bars.
I couldn’t wait
to turn eighteen
To
graduate - my biggest dream
I’d reach far out beyond the stars
But never thought of bamboo bars.

I thought my
life was far too tame
And overseas there burned a flame
So off I went to do my thing
Not
knowing all the hurt ‘twould bring.
And now I'm left
with only scars
And watch the stars through bamboo bars.
