Lyrics
Etch- A- Sketch Kid - Words and Music written by Ken Macy (c) Library Of Congress
Verse 1
Painted my head, Reflecting off of mirrors
Make a few lines, and cut me off with scissors.
I break from the mold, an Etch- A- Sketch artist
Brand new baby that comes into the world.
Bridge
His mind is flat, deprived of information And his body thin, from his own creations
Tell him what to do, he'll do it for you
Make sure he's pushing to please your needs
Chorus:
He's an Etch-A-Sketch Kid (3x)
Drawing lines off of the grid
Verse 2
He draws a few lines on the flat -board screen
When he makes a mistake, he shakes the board clean.
And starts from scratch, with another creation
Life imitates art with no appreciation.
Bridge
At the end of the road, when it's out of style,
The Etch-A-Sketch Kid will break down the file
He'll wear down slow, shaving life away
Removing all the colors, and dying gray.
Chorus
