A parent warning their child about their choice of companions. Some people are arrested development and will always remain too young to grow and evolve.

Too Young To Change
Too young to change, too hard to train
You best leave that boy alone
He's had his own way most of his living days
His heart’s as cold as a stone
Too young to train, too hard to change
He keeps on rolling like a stone
He's got his own plan
He's his own biggest fan
You best leave that boy alone
Like a tumbleweed, he loves to spread his seed
But never stops to watch it grow
Two steps forward, three steps back
He’s lost more than he will ever know
Full of delight, he’ll please you all night
In the morning he’ll be gone
He's chasing a high from days gone by
He can’t get high but he’s always stoned
Spends most of his days in a messed up haze
Trying not to be alone
Broken inside, he’s on a one way ride
Broken inside, he’s on a one way ride
Best leave that boy alone
Best watch your heart, he’ll tear it all apart
And laugh while you sink like a stone
Now misery loves company and so does he
He’ll leave you broken and all alone
Broken inside, he’s on a one way ride
You best leave that boy alone
Messed up haze, most of his days

Born & raised Toronto! My great grandfather escaped to Canada on underground railroad, enabling his family & eventually
myself to be Canadian. My songs are based on our shared life experiences, telling stories that are uplifting & empowering. I love discovering new chord progressions that enhance the story telling. Sometimes Blues. Country. Jazz. Pop. Political. Wherever the story takes it....more
