Child of the Universe

• Words & Music: Theo Simon, Seize the Day

1. Here’s a lit­tle his­to­ry
   Of a big­ger mys­tery,
   I have writ­ten this sto­ry into my song,
   If it isn’t what you’re used to
   I hope it will amuse you,
   And maybe if you choose to
   Then you’ll sing along
   It goes:

Cho­rus:
I am as old as the uni­verse,
I’ve been here before
And I’ll be here again,
I am a child of the uni­verse,
A part of all women
And a part of all men

2. Once upon a some­time
   And once upon a some­where,
   And once upon a some­how
   There was a big bang.
   Ener­gy revolv­ing
   And ener­gy dis­solv­ing
   And ener­gy evolv­ing
   And that’s what I am
3. I’m a lit­tle flower
   That blos­soms for an hour
   But in me there’s a pow­er
   That goes on and on,
   Pow­er in the roots of me,
   Pow­er in the shoots of me,
   Pow­er in the fruit
   That will pass my seed on
4. I am not a some­body
   I am not a nobody
   I’m a cell in one body fill­ing all space,
   All I ever could be
   And all I ever should be
   And all I ever will be
   Is here in this place
